How to tell if Angular CLI has been used

What are the signs which denote that an Angular project has been built by using Angular CLI? I want to tell that by just looking at the files' structure of the project. My thoughts:




  • Is ClientApp folder one of those signs?

  • Can we make sure the app has used Angular CLI if main.ts exists in the above app?

  • Of course angular-cli.json or angular.json is a sound sign


Anything else?

  • try ng --version, will display Angular CLI version getting used by this project.

  • Someone might install Angular CLI afterwards. So, that's not safe...

  • Maybe the fact that there is a custom configuration for webpack?
