I saw a talk by Daniel Roth on .NET Core APIs at the AngularMix.

As of version 2 of .NET Core as of a month and change ago there is now an option for making an Angular 4 UI project for a solution in Visual Studio when spinning up a new app. This was the most interesting thing said during the talk. The canned Angular app is of Webpack and not the Angular CLI unfortunately, but an Angular CLI version should come shortly in the next release. app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage(); is the middleware means for allowing exceptions to surface in the red and yellow screen of death. However, red and yellow have been replaced with blue and grey.
