I learned a little about AngularJS and now I'm starting with Node.js and some doubts have arisen. With the Angular I use $routeProvider to create the routes and to navigate between the pages as a single page application, in the Node I was also able to use the routes, but the question arose as to how to use the two or if, using angular and node, I should use the routes in one or the other.
I read several things and from what I saw, I should use the routes by node only, is that right?
War, $ routeProvider is only used on the front end and serves to navigate between pages. With it you can define the controller and layout of each page.
The nodejs is a server (backend). The routes you create in Express are REST services and you can make requests for these services through $ http from the angle.
The right thing is to use only the node,
With Express you will probably want to capture all the requests and send them to your index.html example:
app = express();
app.use(app.router);
app.use(function(req, res) {
res.sendfile(__dirname + '/public/index.html');
});
