Before:

  • All the packages installed via bower were not automatically inserted into index.html. The reason is wiredep is not properly configured with the proper path to bower_components.

  • In addition, the server middleware was also not configured to use bower_components so even if users add the script tags to packages in bower_components manually, the server would return 404 not found to the browser requests.

  • A final problem addressed in this pull request is that the watch task was not monitoring index.html so the browser was not refreshing when that was changed.

The consequence of these problems is when running gulp serve, the user is met with a page that has no css and no js libraries.

After:
• Fixed wiredep directory to proper location (outside of the app folder)
• Started watching index.html (via paths.views.main)
• Added bower_component as a resource for the server middleware
