Hi Pravat kumar,

I have already worked same example,

Let's try this,
ng generate component newfolder/test
(or)
ng g c newfolder/test
It's working for me.

Thanks,

Hello Sanwar,

your given option is still available, But my team is suggesting me for default folder.

i have change configuration in angular.json folder, that configuration changes not able to fulfill my need.

e.g. ng g c home

it is creating additional app folder.

src >> app >> csharpcorner >> app >> home>>home.component.ts

Thank You.

Hello pravat

You need to give address of your folder in which you want to create your component

cd ng g c

Hi Sanwar,

Thank you for quick response.

After app folder I have created a folder.

e.g: csharpcorner

src >> app>>csharpcorner

i want to make "csharpcorner " folder as default folder.

if i will create component that component will create in "csharpcorner" folder instead of "app" folder.
e.g. ng g c home

currently default angular setup is creating component in app location like
src >> app >> home>>home.component.ts

But my requirement is after csharpcorner folder.
src >> app >> csharpcorner >> home>>home.component.ts

but i don't want to use below cli command every time for creating component.

ng g c csharpcorner/home

thank you.
