I’ve been doing a bit of AngularJS at work, and getting it all working with Rails, the asset pipeline, testing, and deployment was quite a challenge. It wasn’t so much difficult to do, but difficult to uncover the right information. So, I decided to compile it all in a nice tutorial and post it as a free mini-ebook, in web form, also known as a website¹.

From angular-rails.com:

Once you're familiar enough with Angular to start building an app, you'll find there are a lot of unanswered questions:

• How do I serve Angular assets via the Rails Asset Pipeline?
• How does Angular's templating system work with Rails?
• How do I connect Angular to my Rails controllers?
• How do I test my Angular code within a Rails app?
• How do I manage all these JavaScript dependencies?
• What challenges will there be in the production environment not present in the development environment?

I was able to find answers by piecing together information from Stack Overflow and various blog posts. You shouldn't have to do that.
