Angular 2 - how to use the new angular 2.0.0-rc.1 router

Question

I\'ve started to write a new angular 2 project and I found that I installed 2 angular router:

1. \"@angular/router\": \"2.0.0-rc.1\",

Answer 1

update for RC.1

The new router @angular/router of Angular2 RC.1 is deprecated.
The Angular team is working on providing a new router again.
It was suggested to stay with the old @angular/router-deprecated router until this new new router becomes available

The docs for the new router are work in progress. See for example https://github.com/angular/angular.io/pull/1214

The new router has a few issues but in overall is working fine already. If you don't just want to learn about how to use it, I'd wait at least for the next Angular RC version. There are some early adopters that reported a few issues where most are probably easy to fix.
