Project Development

ng new RESTfulNode
cd RESTfulNode && ng serve //then stop
npm install express cors mongoose -S //similarly for others see package.json dependencies
npm install chai chai-http -D //similarly for other see package.json devDependencies

Note: You do not want Angular (just API server) then remove src/**, .angular-cli.json, karma.conf.js, protractor.conf.js. And comment out following two lines from server.js

app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'dist'));
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'dist')));

Project should work
