Description

In an effort to be more transparent about the project, we are creating roadmaps for everything. This is the tentative roadmap for the Angular generator.

Priority 1

Refactor all the tests to test everything, including all existing options
Make everything configurable. This will include a combination of flags, prompts and a configuration file
- File casing in both scripts and filenames
- Paths to where things are located tip
- Preprocessors declaration
Support the project as a sub-generator for other projects (Angular full stack, MEAN stack, etc). This should happen as a side-effect of making everything configurable.
Different organization of files. This includes the by module (proposed AngularJS team recommendation), or by function (current). Also where assets go in dev mode (CSS, JS, HTML)

Priority 2

Remove minsafe files. Done
Consolidate all template files/folders into a central location Done
Add gulp as a build tool
Add support for JS templates (adding grunt-angular-templates to the build tasks #277)
Add Protractor E2E tests and templates
Add option for UI-Router

Priority 3

Add support for TypeScript (Typescript support for generator-angular #313, Adding typescript support to generator-angular #539)
Add support for BabelJS
Add support for Stylus, Less
Add support for Jade (feat(build): add Jade support #420)
Remove heavy reliance on Bootstrap so other frameworks can be used (maybe as a prompt choice)
Make vanilla CSS (no framework selected) more visually appealing
Add ESLint to the project (probably replaces JSHint)

Priority 4

Support for backend implementations, whether that be proxies, rewrite rules, make it more composable for other generators or actually adding a backend REST server (highly unlikely though)
uncss? remove css styles

If you think there are other things that should be added to the roadmap, or have questions about any of these, please feel free to comment.
