# Using with Angular CLI

The [Angular CLI](https://angular.dev/tools/cli) is a command-line tool for scaffolding and building Angular applications.

For more information on the recommended workflow for using Kendo UI for Angular with Angular CLI, refer to the article on [getting started](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui-develop/components/getting-started).

## Using the ng add Command

To install any package from Kendo UI for Angular, use [`ng-add`](https://angular.dev/tools/cli/schematics-for-libraries#providing-installation-support) command and add the name of the NPM package.

```sh
ng add @progress/kendo-angular-inputs
```

The `ng add @progress/kendo-angular-inputs` command executes the following actions:

* Adds the `@progress/kendo-angular-inputs` package as a dependency.
* Imports the `InputsModule` in the current application module.
  > If your application uses standalone components, you must [import the `InputsModule` manually](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui-develop/components/inputs/installation/manual-setup).
* Registers the default Kendo UI theme in the `angular.json` file.
* Adds all required peer dependencies to `package.json`.
* Triggers `npm install` to install the theme and all peer packages that are added.
