NativeScript Angular project 'tns run android' gives errors

Question

I created a project using the following command:

ng new -c=@nativescript/schematics project-name --shared

When I run tns run android , I get the following errors:

platforms/android/app/build/intermediates/merged_assets/debug/mergeDebugAssets/out/app/tns_modules/zone.js/lib/zone-spec/long-stack-trace.ts(25,10): error TS2393: Duplicate function implementation.
platforms/android/app/build/intermediates/merged_assets/debug/mergeDebugAssets/out/app/tns_modules/zone.js/lib/zone.ts(632,6): error TS2300: Duplicate identifier 'AmbientZone'.
platforms/android/app/src/main/assets/app/tns_modules/rxjs/src/operator/catch.ts(1,15): error TS2307: Cannot find module 'rxjs-compat/operator/catch'.

These are just sample errors. There are so many of these kind.

I tried;

• Removing node_modules folder and run npm install
• Removing platforms/android folder
• Updating NativeScript(5.1.0) and Angular CLI()
• Removing /users/username/.gradle folder and let it reinstall
• Reinstalling Nodejs
• Installing rxjs-compat which only solves rxjs-compat related errors

Nothing worked so far.

Please seethe issue here

Basically, remove the tns_modules folder from platforms/android/app/build/intermediates/merged_assets/debug/mergeDebugAssets/out/app/tns_modules/

It is apparently caused by npm link command I used somewhere.
