Answer 1

Check this repo. It has an example for underscore

https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/wiki/3rd-party-libs#adding-underscore-library-to-your-project

I did this on my imports to make it work

//Place this at the top near your imports
/// 
import {Injectable} from '@angular/core';
import {Http} from '@angular/http';
import * as _ from 'underscore';

Make sure you have the right reference path to underscore typings.
