title: Node.js/AngularJS front end calling Spring Boot API backend
body: <p>I have been doing extensive research into hooking up a Node.js/AngularJS front end server with a Spring Boot backend API server, but I keep encountering obstacles.  And I have not found one single working example on the web.  </p>
  
  <p>The Spring examples all serve their Angular code from inside a Spring Boot app, but that is a horrible practice for many reasons.  </p>
  
  <p><strong>Can someone point to some working examples of a Node.js/AngularJS front end server successfully making data/API transactions with a backend Spring Boot server?</strong>  </p>
  
  <p>Normally, I would never post a question asking for examples, but this is a special case because none of my research has located working examples, and my questions on the topic never seem to resolve this essential question.</p>
