#### Building & Running _** WARNING: This is a temporary hack **_ 1. At the root of your `ionic2` directory/repo, run: `gulp update.angular`. This will get the latest version of Angular2 master and install it as a sibling directory `../angular-ionic` to wherever your `ionic2` directory is. (It'll take a while to npm install angular2, so go grab a beer). 2. In the `ionic2` working directory, run `gulp watch`. This will copy ionic2 components and test files to the correct angular directories as you're developing. 3. In another terminal, `cd` into the `../angular-ionic` directory, and run `gulp serve.js.dev`. This will build out ionic examples too. 4. Go to [http://localhost:8000/examples/src/ionic/](http://localhost:8000/examples/src/ionic/) 5. Stay cool _** WARNING: This is a temporary hack **_ #### Things you'll probably need to fix - `@Decorator` is now just `@Directive` - Components must use an element selector - `NgElement` is no longer a thing, it's now `ElementRef`. Stuff needs to be fixed. - All `main.js` test files were renamed to `index.js` to work with angular's build - imports that are relative paths should start with `./`. For example, instead of `path/module` it should be `./path/module` - `Component`, `Directive` and `View` should NOT be imported from `angular2/angular2`. You'll probably get "No Directive annotation found on Content" when the wrong import is referenced. - Import those instead from: ``` import {Component, Directive} from 'angular2/src/core/annotations_impl/annotations'; import {View} from 'angular2/src/core/annotations_impl/view'; ```
