About Angular CLI
Angular CLI is the ng command used to work on Angular projects. It creates new workspaces, generates components and other code from schematics, serves an app during development, compiles builds into a dist folder, and runs linting, unit tests and end-to-end tests.
It also adds external libraries to a project, extracts i18n messages, updates projects to newer Angular versions, manages workspace configuration in angular.json, and sets up shell autocompletion. It suits web developers building applications with the Angular framework.
