Angular2 + JSPM cheat sheet

First time setup

  • install jspm beta: npm install -g jspm@beta
  • set up your project: jspm init
  • install dependencies: jspm install angular2 reflect-metadata zone.js es6-shim

This will create a jspm_packages folder, and a config.js file.

Open the config.js file - this file manages options for the System.js loader - tweak it as appropriate
