Cannot find type definition file for 'core-js'

Question

I am building an angular2 application with angular-cli. angular-in-memory-web-api was not installed by default.

So I searched for it and added this line "angular-in-memory-web-api": "~0.1.5" in my package.json file. And did npm install.

Now I am having this issue.

ERROR in [default] /home/adil/Code/AngularJS.2/cli-based/mz-doc-app/node_modules/angular-in-memory-web-api/in-memory-backend.service.d.ts:1:0 
Cannot find type definition file for 'core-js'.

Please suggest some solution ?

I solved the problem by deleting the first line /// <reference types="core-js" /> of node_modules/angular-in-memory-web-api/in-memory-backend.service.d.ts

It's not a permanent solution but wait for a fix (https://github.com/angular/in-memory-web-api/issues/62)
