This doesn't update everything -- it leaves out some of the more complicated changes (architecture, code-structure, configuration, install, and proxy-setup). Those will require more complete rewrites, so I'm punting them to a future PR.

Local Testing
Running a local development server
Nomulus provides a RegistryTestServer that is a lightweight test server
suitable for running local development. It uses local versions of all Google
Cloud Platform dependencies when available. Correspondingly, it is primarily
useful for doing web UI development (i.e. the registrar console). It allows you
to update Typescript, HTML, and CSS and see the changes simply by refreshing the
relevant page in your browser.
In order to serve content locally, there are two services that must be run: *
the RegistryTestServer to serve as the backing server * the Angular service to
provide the UI files
In order to do this in one step, from the console-webapp folder, run:
$ npm install
$ npm run start:dev
This will start both the RegistryTestServer and the Angular testing service.
Any changes to Typescript/HTML/CSS files will be recompiled and available on
page reload.
One it is running, you can interact with the console by going to
http://localhost:4200 to view the registrar console in a web browser. The
server will continue running until you terminate the process.
If you are adding new URL paths, or new directories of web-accessible resources,
you will need to make the corresponding changes in RegistryTestServer. This
class contains all the routing and static file information used by the local
development server.
