Versions.

@angular/cli: 1.0.0

Desired functionality.

The CLI should add @angular/animations by default to the package.json. This would make it easier to use animations and Angular Material, without any downside on rendered bundles unless the user imports them.

Sounds related to #5785 .. There should be a PR open to add @angular/animations (#5786), although it adds it as an opt-in feature to allow the user to decide instead of adding additional node packages to a project that doesn't need them.

@dave11mj we're looking at just adding the dependency with no generated files. This is part of some improvements we're making for the new projects.

@filipesilva I opened a PR for the dependency on #5786 it seemed alright with @Brocco except for a change request to remove the generated file which I already applied on the commit. Could you take a look at it and let me know if its aligned with the requirements ? ^^

Thanks ! :D

[filipesilva]

I'll ping @Brocco about it to see what should be done.

Heya, turned out work as ongoing in #6144 now so I closed your PR in favor of that one. Thanks for taking the time to help out!

[dave11mj]

@filipesilva #6144 fixes this issue too literally only by adding @angular/animations to the package.json. If thats the only requirement to address this ticket, then could we reopen #5785, @Brocco seemed to like the idea, and it's significantly different given it asks not only for the @angular/animations package to be downloaded into the node_modules but also for animations to be supported out of the box by the cli, which involves a little more than just adding the package to the package.json .
