aot folder missing from repo

Getting the following error when building:

ERROR in ./src/main.ts Module not found: Error: Can't resolve './aot/app/app.module.ngfactory' in 'c:\Checkouts\material2-app\src' @ ./src/main.ts 8:0-76 @ multi main

https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/cookbook/aot-compiler.html use below command material2-app-master\node_modules.bin>ngc -p ../../src/tsconfig.json

If your not using the "AOT" compiler in dev just go into the main.ts and comment out the last three lines

//import {platformBrowser} from '@angular/platform-browser'; //import {MaterialAppModuleNgFactory} from './aot/app/app.module.ngfactory'; //platformBrowser().bootstrapModuleFactory(MaterialAppModuleNgFactory);

and uncomment the three lines above (the module bootstrap lines).
import {platformBrowserDynamic} from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic'; import {MaterialAppModule} from './app/app.module'; platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(MaterialAppModule);

about solving the issue of "patterns.map is not a function" you should look into https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/3566
