Convention-based bootstrapper for LoopBack applications

Miroslav Bajtoš ac16d92a8b Rename `app.json` to `config.json` The new loopback project layout adds a concept of components like 'rest server' and 'isomorphic client', each component having its own set of boot files. The name `app.json` is confusing, since it is configuring a component, not the app (which is the whole project).		2014-06-25 08:18:04 +02:00
