Angular 4 Nuget Package

Question

I am looking to try out the new Angular release (4.1.x), however the Angular package on Nuget states that this is version 1.6.x - which was released in April coinciding with when Angular 4 was released. Does anybody know if this is the package I'm looking for if I wanted to work with the latest release of Angular 4?

Answer 1

Angular's package present on Nuget is the AngularJS package, which is a complete different version of angular (the first version).

Angular (named angular, not angularJS, published with a version >2.0.0 on npm as @angular/...) is not present on Nuget as a package, that's why you can't find it.

Answer 2

If you want something prebuilt you will have to use npm install -g @angular/cli instead of Nuget. Angular cli quick start link https://angular.io/guide/quickstart
