@angular/material/index.d.ts' is not a module

Question

With Angular 8, While building the app, we encounter the following error:

app/modules/admin-module/pages/editor/editor.component.ts:6:27 - error TS2306: 
Fil         


        

Answer 1

❌ DO NOT:

// old code that breaks
import { MatDialogModule,
  MatInputModule,
  MatButtonModule} from '@angular/material';

✅ DO:

// new code that works
import { MatDialogModule } from '@angular/material/dialog';
import { MatInputModule } from '@angular/material/input';
import { MatButtonModule } from '@angular/material/button';

ℹ Because:

Components can no longer be imported through "@angular/material". Use the individual secondary entry-points, such as @angular/material/button.
