You develop apps in the context of an Angular [workspace](guide/glossary#workspace). A workspace contains the files for one or more [projects](guide/glossary#project). A project is the set of files that comprise a standalone app, a library, or a set of end-to-end (e2e) tests.
The Angular CLI command `ng new <project_name>` gets you started.
When you run this command, the CLI installs the necessary Angular npm packages and other dependencies in a new workspace, with a root folder named *project_name*.
It also creates the following workspace and starter project files:
| `angular.json` | CLI configuration defaults for all projects in the workspace, including configuration options for build, serve, and test tools that the CLI uses, such as [TSLint](https://palantir.github.io/tslint/), [Karma](https://karma-runner.github.io/), and [Protractor](http://www.protractortest.org/). For details, see [Angular Workspace Configuration](guide/workspace-config). |
| `package.json` | Configures [npm package dependencies](guide/npm-packages) that are available to all projects in the workspace. See [npm documentation](https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json) for the specific format and contents of this file. |
| `package-lock.json` | Provides version information for all packages installed into `node_modules` by the npm client. See [npm documentation](https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package-lock.json) for details. If you use the yarn client, this file will be [yarn.lock](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/yarn-lock/) instead. |
| `tsconfig.json` | Default [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) configuration for apps in the workspace, including TypeScript and Angular template compiler options. See [TypeScript Configuration](guide/typescript-configuration). |
Project-specific [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) configuration files inherit from the workspace-wide `tsconfig.*.json`, and app-specific [TSLint](https://palantir.github.io/tslint/) configuration files inherit from the workspace-wide `tslint.json`.
A newly generated app contains the source files for a root module, with a root component and template.
When the workspace file structure is in place, you can use the `ng generate` command on the command line to add functionality and data to the initial app.
Besides using the CLI on the command line, you can also use an interactive development environment like [Angular Console](https://angularconsole.com/), or manipulate files directly in the app's source folder and configuration files.
| `environments/` | Contains build configuration options for particular target environments. By default there is an unnamed standard development environment and a production ("prod") environment. You can define additional target environment configurations. |
| `browserslist` | Configures sharing of target browsers and Node.js versions among various front-end tools. See [Browserslist on GitHub](https://github.com/browserslist/browserslist) for more information. |
| `favicon.ico` | An icon to use for this app in the bookmark bar. |
| `favicon.ico` | 一个用在书签栏上的应用图标。 |
| `index.html` | The main HTML page that is served when someone visits your site. The CLI automatically adds all JavaScript and CSS files when building your app, so you typically don't need to add any `<script>` or` <link>` tags here manually. |
| `main.ts` | The main entry point for your app. Compiles the application with the [JIT compiler](https://angular.io/guide/glossary#jit) and bootstraps the application's root module (AppModule) to run in the browser. You can also use the [AOT compiler](https://angular.io/guide/aot-compiler) without changing any code by appending the `--aot` flag to the CLI `build` and `serve` commands. |
| `polyfills.ts` | Provides polyfill scripts for browser support. |
| `polyfills.ts` | 为浏览器支持提供腻子脚本(polyfill)。 |
| `styles.sass` | Lists CSS files that supply styles for a project. The extension reflects the style preprocessor you have configured for the project. |
When you generate an app (`ng generate application my-other-app`), the CLI adds folders under `projects/` for both the app and its corresponding end-to-end tests. Newly generated libraries are also added under `projects/`.
Inside the `src/` folder, the `app/` folder contains your app's logic and data. Angular components, templates, and styles go here. An `assets/` subfolder contains images and anything else your app needs. Files at the top level of `src/` support testing and running your app.
| `app/app.component.ts` | Defines the logic for the app's root component, named `AppComponent`. The view associated with this root component becomes the root of the [view hierarchy](guide/glossary#view-hierarchy) as you add components and services to your app. |
| `app/app.module.ts` | Defines the root module, named `AppModule`, that tells Angular how to assemble the application. Initially declares only the `AppComponent`. As you add more components to the app, they must be declared here. |
