How do I choose between Angular Schematics CLI  vs Ignite UI CLI .. 

Ignite UI for Angular Schematics are available as a collection that can be used with the Angular CLI.
They offer similar core Ignite UI CLI functionality, but one that's integrated with the Schematics workflow
and focused specifically on this product.

What is the 'this product' the text refers to ?  Basically which CLI to choose .. it says both have similar core functionality what would be criteria to choose one vs another

Thanks.

    Hello Michael,

    Thank you for posting in our community!

    I have been looking into your question and what I could say, as mentioned in our Ignite UI for Angular Schematics & Ignite UI CLI topic here, is that Ignite UI CLI is a stand-alone command-line tool for creating and scaffolding applications for a variety of frameworks, i.e., jQuery, Angular, Web Components, and React. Additionally, I would suggest referring to the following Ignite UI CLI topics that provide detailed information on how to create a project, add a template, run the application, etc.

    On the other hand, as you have pointed out:

    Ignite UI for Angular Schematics are available as a collection that can be used with the Angular CLI. They offer similar core Ignite UI CLI functionality, but one that`s integrated with the Schematics workflow and focused specifically on this product.

    where "this product" refers to the Ignite UI for Angular product.

    The following topics provide further information on how to create a project, add a template, run the application, etc. with the help of the Ignite UI for Angular Schematics.

    To conclude, to create an application from scratch and configure it to use the Ignite UI for Angular components you can use either the Ignite UI for Angular Schematics or the Ignite UI CLI. The main difference could be that the Ignite UI for Angular Schematics are specific and used only for the Ignite UI for Angular product, whereas the Ignite UI CLI can be used for creating and scaffolding applications for a variety of frameworks.

    Please review the provided resources and let me know if you need any further information regarding this matter.

    Looking forward to your reply.
