Description

  • I understand that GitHub issues are not for tech support, but for questions specific to this generator, bug reports, and feature requests.

It would be great to have a gulp build flag that lets use set the base href. This will help out users who deploy to virtualhosts/subcontext directories on their webservers.

Research direction
Investigate the gulp build task in the generator's template (e.g., 'templates/ gulpfile.js'). Look at how the base href is currently set in index.html. Consider adding a ' base' argument to the gulp build command that replaces the base href value. Check existing gulp options for consistency and update the README accordingly.
