QuickStart an Angular Ecommerce App using a Headless CMS API

Cosmic JS is an API-first content management platform that makes it easy to add content to any existing or new application. Developers get a suite of powerful APIs while content managers manage content in a familiar cloud-based content editor. To demonstrate how easy it is to get started with Cosmic JS, we’ll utilize the Cosmic JS CLI to quickstart an Angular Ecommerce App.

This Angular ecommerce app allows you to process orders from customers and accept Stripe payments for goods and services. Manage inventory in your Cosmic JS Dashboard or in the admin area on the website. You can even subsequently deploy the app to Cosmic JS, Zeit, Heroku or Netlify.
