## What it is
A deprecated, extensible starter project (boilerplate) for building Angular 2+ applications with a statically typed Gulp build system and Ahead-of-Time compilation. It supports multiple Angular apps in one codebase, unit and e2e testing, i18n, and Docker-based development and production environments.

## Use cases
- bootstrap a new Angular 2+ application with a preconfigured build
- set up AoT compilation and production builds for Angular
- run unit tests with Jasmine/Karma and e2e tests with Protractor
- develop multiple Angular apps sharing one codebase
- get a Docker-ready Angular dev and production setup
- add Angular i18n and PWA support to a starter project

## When to choose
- you must maintain or extend a legacy project already based on angular-seed
- you need a reference for custom Gulp-based Angular build pipelines with AoT

## When to avoid
- starting any new Angular project - use Angular CLI instead
- you want actively maintained tooling or up-to-date Angular version support
- you need modern tooling like Vite, esbuild, or the latest testing stack

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: abandoned
- function: build-tool, developer-tools, testing
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
