How to run Angular 2 (cli) without build?

Question

I use Angular 2 CLI . In order to run the project for debugging, have to execute ng build or ng serve . It is too long. Before, when I used 2 Angular Quick Start package.json there was an opportunity to execute a command that compiles the just-in-time and instantly returns the result.

How do the same on the cli?

With Anguar CLI you need to run ng serve once. It starts the webpack-dev-server and keeps it running. You can start debugging and changing code, and webpack-dev-server will be automatically recompiling your code and re-building the bundles in memory every time you modify your code. All this happens as fast as with SystemJS transpiling in the browser.
