angular-cli.json create error while adding style.css

Question

I am creating my first angular electron project and here is my error log I am trying to add new fonts and styles in my angular 4 project

I have removed bootstrap from my project because style.css contains all the boostrap code and my personal css

Answer 1

MicroFinanceAssets <Directory>
    - node_modules <Directory>
    - angular-cli.json

you need to run command npm start from(under) directory MicroFinanceAssets

either for testing

run npm i font-awesome --save

and add following line in angular-cli instead your css file

"../node_modules/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css"

If it gets compiled then your path to css file is wrong

Answer 2

this cli may be help you.. first install bootstrap in your program using npm install bootstrap --save

and change your cli with this code

 "$schema": "./node_modules/@angular/cli/lib/config/schema.json",
 "project": {

           "root": "src",
           "outDir": "dist",
           "assets": [
               "assets",
               "favicon.ico"
           ],
           "index": "index.html",
           "main": "main.ts",
           "polyfills": "polyfills.ts",
           "test": "test.ts",
           "tsconfig": "tsconfig.app.json",
           "testTsconfig": "tsconfig.spec.json",
           "styles": [
               "../node_modules/admin-ample/template/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css"

           ], 
           "scripts": [
               "../node_modules/admin-ample/plugins/bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js",

           ],
           "environmentSource": "environments/environment.ts",
           "environments": {
               "dev": "environments/environment.ts",
               "prod": "environments/environment.prod.ts"
           }
       }
   ],
   "e2e": {
       "protractor": {

Actually angular 4 has in-built functionality that it can pre-validate.In Angular older version like AJ 1.6 there are no pre-check inside it. So you have to make sure that your CSS has any syntax error and any extra character-word then remove it,and build it. hope fully it will be work
