angular2-localstorage/index.js implicitly has an 'any' type

[rj93]

I am using Angular 4 (not sure if its compatiable?), and I'm trying to use local storage. I have angular2-localstorage installed at /node_modules/angular2-localstorage but I am unable to start the application. The full error I get is:

> [email protected] prestart C:\xampp\htdocs\reddit-search
> npm run build


> [email protected] build C:\xampp\htdocs\reddit-search
> tsc -p src/

ngx-store is compatible with Angular v4 and AoT compiler. Give it a try :)
