Echoes is a great youtube player developed by Oren Farhi. It's fun & easy to listen or watch videos from youtube with Echoes. What if youtube was designed to be used as music player? This repository is an implementation of Echoes Player with Angular (+2)- It's still a work in progress aimed at learning angular 2.
Echoes Player is also available as a Chrome Application
It can be regarded as the Media Player experience for youtube listening pleasure.

This is a clone and modification of AngularClass angular2 webpack starter.
It's a quite robust starter which includes inside everything needed to experiment with angular2, prepare for production and testing as well.
Make sure you have Node version >= 5.0 and NPM >= 3
# install the repo with npm
npm install
# start the server
npm start
# use Hot Module Replacement (disabled for now)
# npm run server:dev:hmrgo to http://0.0.0.0:3000 or http://localhost:3000 in your browser
I use the component approach in our starter. This is the new standard for developing Angular apps and a great way to ensure maintainable code by encapsulation of our behavior logic. A component is basically a self contained app usually in a single file or a folder with each concern as a file: style, template, specs, e2e, and component class. Here's how it looks:
angular2-webpack-starter/
├──config/ * our configuration
| ├──helpers.js * helper functions for our configuration files
| ├──spec-bundle.js * ignore this magic that sets up our angular 2 testing environment

Install Debugger for Chrome and see docs for instructions to launch Chrome
The included .vscode automatically connects to the webpack development server on port 3000.
When you include a module that doesn't include Type Definitions inside of the module you can include external Type Definitions with @types
i.e, to have youtube api support, run this command in terminal:
npm i @types/youtube @types/gapi @types/gapi.youtubeIn some cases where your code editor doesn't support Typescript 2 yet or these types weren't listed in tsconfig.json, add these to "src/custom-typings.d.ts" to make peace with the compile check:
import '@types/gapi.youtube';
import '@types/gapi';
import '@types/youtube';When including 3rd party modules you also need to include the type definition for the module if they don't provide one within the module. You can try to install it with @types
npm install @types/node
npm install @types/lodash
If you can't find the type definition in the registry we can make an ambient definition in this file for now. For example
declare module "my-module" {
export function doesSomething(value: string): string;
}If you're prototyping and you will fix the types later you can also declare it as type any
declare var assert: any;
declare var _: any;
declare var $: any;If you're importing a module that uses Node.js modules which are CommonJS you need to import as
import * as _ from 'lodash';
