“You seem to not be depending on ”@angular/core“.”

Question

When I try to build my project running the following command:

ng build --environment=prod --aot=false  --output-pa         


        

Answer 1

I went down the list of installing the various dependencies as prompted in the terminal. I am running on Windows so I also installed windows Build Tools.

I ran ng serve and got "You seem to not be depending on "@angular/core" and/or "rxjs". This is an error."

Then ran

npm link

followed by

ng serve

Everything is now running. Not sure how much of what I did was necessary/redundant but I can now build Angular projects.
