Whats the easiest way to run node along with generator-angular?

I have spent several hours doing this and I'm completely losing my mind.

I have angularJS on front-end, and Node+Express on the backend.

Right now, I have a default project of generator-angular and I'm trying to get the front end and the backend node server running under the same grunt server.

The closest thing I have found is this: https://github.com/blai/grunt-express-angular-example

But it is wildly out of date, and so much has changed.

Is there a newer/easier way to accomplish this? Is there a way generator-angular and grunt-express can play together nicely or does it basically require rewriting the entire Gruntfile from scratch... maybe a gist somewhere that's not super old?

Thanks, any information you can give to help me would be excellent. I could paste my gruntfile but it's essentially the same as the default generator-angular
