Step 2: Now we will create an angular project.

ng new project_name

Step 3: After creating your react project, move into the folder to perform different operations.

cd project_name

Step 4: After creating the Angular application, Install the required module using the following command:

npm install primeng --save
npm install primeicons --save

Project Structure: After running the commands mentioned in the above steps, if you open the project in an editor, you can see a similar project structure as shown below. The new component user makes or the code changes, we will be performing will be done in the “src” folder.

Project Structure

Step to Run Application: Run the application using the following command from the root directory of the project:

ng serve --open

Example 1:  We are creating a UI that shows Angular PrimeNG Button Templating.  Here, we are inserting a styled icon inside the button as content.

• app.component.ts

Javascript

import { Component } from "@angular/core";

@Component({
    selector: "app-root",
    templateUrl: "./app.component.html",
    styleUrls: ["./app.component.css"],
})

export class AppComponent { }

• app.module.ts

Javascript

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule }
    from '@angular/platform-browser';

        ButtonModule,
    ],

})
export class AppModule {
}

Output: Now open your browser and go to http://localhost:4200/, you will see the following output:
