Why default by using systemjs instead of webpack ?

[ghost]

i install angular-cli@systemjs and angular-cli@webpack

then

i run:

ng new PROJECT_NAME
cd PROJECT_NAME
ng build --prod

systemjs:

---

webpack:

Is there any meaning for systemjs ?
Why not delete the systemjs version?

:)

From what it seems, the web pack version will be the preferred version but has only just been merged to master in the last week or so. My guess is that they want to do a bit more work on it before committing it as there default.

The webpack version we didn't want to set as the @latest npm tag so that users who had existing projects wouldn't automatically see their apps error by doing an npm update or npm install. Eventually we will have the webpack build on master become latest after our Migration guide and other things fall in place.

We're still trying to get all the kinks out, and webpack will turn to the default at that time.

Will there be still @systemjs support after webpack becomes @latest ? Or will you be developing only @webpack version ?

[filipesilva]

@samuel-kollat only on webpack.
