error TS2307: Cannot find module '@angular/core'

Question

So I get the following error when I tried building my application again:

ERROR in ../../../node_modules/@angular/cdk/a11y/typings/aria-describer/aria-describer

Answer 1

This problem apparently was being caused by the CDK and material modules of angular. I don't exactly know how it happend but I fixed it.

I fixed it by following an answer in this github issue: https://github.com/angular/material2/issues/8306

Solution

To fix this issue you have to run the following commands:

npm install --save @angular/material @angular/cdk
rm -rf node_modules
npm install
