A skeleton Angular 2 app built with Babel and Browserify.

• Uses Babel instead of TypeScript/Traceur.
• Supports class/parameter decorators and parameter type annotations with Babel and a Babel transformer plugin.
• Bundles JavaScript files into one file with Browserify. (However, it doesn't use any Browserify-specific technology. You can easily switch to Webpack and etc.)

Clone/fork this repo and:

npm install -g gulp-cli
npm install

gulp build

gulp

npm install -g http-server
http-server public

Back in the time of angular2 alpha.18, angular/quickstart provided us to try Angular 2 app with on-the-fly transpilation and lazy-loading, which resulted in long waiting time for each file change. Also, I was not familiar with the Traceur tool stack and its output. angular2 npm package said The files under /es6 are es6 compatible files that can be transpiled to es5 using any transpiler. So I gave it a shot.

To support parameter decorator and parameter type metadata of Angular 2, this skeleton app uses the following external Babel transformer plugin that I made:

• babel-plugin-angular2-annotations

• Support source map.
