The project won't build

[ghost]

Hi. I'd like to contribute to this project but the building and testing tasks fail to execute.

ng test:

Do you have any idea what's wrong? All I did is

npm install
npm install -g @angular/cli

Are there any additional steps?

https://github.com/johannesjo/angular2-promise-buttons/commit/a144795af26ffce894e7174e965f73101f297569 look like this is the issue. I created a symlink with Windows tool and everything works.

But I don't think that symlink is a real solution to this, as it makes the development process harder for windows users.

I'll close this issue, but I hope a better solution will come up.

Thanks for reporting. I should probably add this to the docs.

@johannesjo hi. I think you should create a CONTRIBUTING file in the root directory. It should explain how to build the project, how to run the tests, how to avoid issues like this one.
