The Angular app will be entirely managed by, well, Angular. As with most client-heavy apps we will need a bootstrapping endpoint that gives all of the information necessary for Angular to build out the UI.

Presently [our API|http://wiki.apache.org/rave/RESTAPI] is structured solely around the part of the app that manages gadgets. This isn't too surprising as that part of the app is where the bulk of the work on the Angular branch involves. But this bootstrapping route is just as important!

In general, if the user isn't logged in then it might be as small as an object saying that they aren't authorized. If they are logged in, then it should be the user's info.

This initial data will be sent back from the server with the initial request, as it's used during the app's startup.
