Spring Security + Angular JS + Spring MVC Rest

Question

I am trying to build a web application with the following frameworks:

• Angular JS on the front end
  
• REST Web Services in the backend using Spring MVC

I want to use Spring Security to authenticate all the requests going from Angular JS to Spring REST Web services. I also need to manage the session timeout/remember password etc. (All of the typical functionalities of a login functionality in a web app)

I have gone over hundreds of articles trying to find out how to do this but none of them is exactly serving the purpose I am asking for.

Any help on this (inline answer or external links) with detailed steps is highly appreciated.
