Angular2 Typescript Webpack Quickstart

Get started quickly with Angular2 Typescript and Webpack: A skeleton / seed Angular2 application that was created by following the official WEBPACK: AN INTRODUCTION on angular.io. I have built this small seed project to get better understanding of the Webpack mechanics as I have never worked with this tool before. I suggest reading the original article, but if you look to start quickly you can use the code and start your own seed project immediately.

Note: You can also use Angular2 CLI that uses Webpack.
