p.
Setting the value of
<code>reflector.reflectionCapabilities</code>
is a temporary workaround
that you can remove once Angular's transformer is available.
Setting the value of <code>reflector.reflectionCapabilities</code>
lets your app use the Dart VM's reflection (dart:mirrors)
when running in Dartium.
Reflection is fast in native Dart,
so using it makes sense during development.
Later, when you build a JavaScript version of your app,
the Angular transformer will
convert the reflection-using code to static code,
so your generated JavaScript can be smaller and faster.

h2#section-angular-run-app 6. Run your app
p.
You have several options for running your app.
The quickest and easiest, for now,
is to open your project in <b>Dart Editor</b>,
right-click <b>web/index.html</b>,
and choose <b>Open in Dartium</b>.
This starts a web server
and opens your app in an experimental browser that contains the Dart VM.
// TODO: screenshot? embedded app?
You have a few options for running your app.
One is to launch a local HTTP server
and then view the app in
<a href="https://www.dartlang.org/tools/dartium/">Dartium</a>.
You can use whatever server you like, such as WebStorm's server
or Python's SimpleHTTPServer.
p.
Another option is to build and serve the app using <code>pub serve</code>,
and then run it by visiting <b>http://localhost:8080</b> in a browser.
Generating the JavaScript takes a few seconds when you first visit the page,
and the generated JavaScript is currently large.
The generated JavaScript will be smaller once
Angular's transformer becomes available.
and then run it by visiting <b>http://localhost:8080</b> in any modern browser.
Pub serve generates the JavaScript on the fly,
which takes a few seconds when you first visit the page.
// [PENDING: Update when transformer is working!]
p.
Once the app is running,
you should see <b>Hello Alice</b> in your browser window.
// WHAT'S NEXT... ##########################
//- STEP 7 - Generate JavaScript ##########################
.l-main-section
h2#section-angular-run-app 7. Generate JavaScript
p.
Before you can deploy your app, you need to generate JavaScript files.
Compiling your Dart code to JavaScript is easy:
just run <code>pub build</code>.
code-example(language="basic").
&gt; <span class="blk">pub build</span>

//- REGENERATE THIS OUTPUT - or delete it? - when updating from 2.0.0-alpha.25
p.
The generated JavaScript appears, along with supporting files,
under the <code>build</code> directory.
p.
When you generate JavaScript for an Angular app,
be sure you use the Angular transformer.
It analyzes your code,
converting reflection-using code to static code
that Dart's build tools can compile to faster, smaller JavaScript.
The highlighted lines in <code>pubspec.yaml</code>
configure the Angular transformer:
code-example(language="yaml" format="linenums").
name: hello_world
version: 0.0.1
dependencies:
angular2: 2.0.0-alpha.25
browser: ^0.10.0+2
<span class="pnk">transformers:
- angular2:
entry_points: web/main.dart</span>
p.
The <code>entry_points</code> entry
identifies the Dart file in your app
that has a <code>main()</code> function.
