what's wrong with my angular2 import code

Question

As code Below, Im new to angular2, why when i use "app/app.module" the light server returns an error:

import {AppModule} from "app/app.module";//wrong
import {AppModule} from "./app.module";  //right

app/main.ts(5,25): error TS2307: Cannot find module '/app/app.module'.

what's the problem?is there any way to use "app/app.module" ?

this is the structure image, exactly flow the angular 2 tut.

I think the problem is because of tsconfig.json, from angular 2 tut. but I dont know how to fix it.

thanks everybody

Answer 1

The both of your example are using a relative path

The path of the AppModule is relative to your current file.

If you using Webpack or SystemJS to import, you should follow this constraint

AppModule _> same folder

./AppModule -> inside a file

../AppModule -> go out from current directory
