Update to Angular 8

[danroth27]

It looks like Angular 7 is scheduled to be released in Sept/Oct of this year: https://angular.io/guide/releases#release-schedule

[Korigoth]

any ETA for this ?

[nokturnal]

Also waiting for this, a rough ETA would be appreciated

[Korigoth]

@nokturnal it seems it will be released with DotNetCore 3.0 as we see it's in the preview atm

@Korigoth though not ideal, I appreciate the feedback. Thanks

The problem is that March/April 2019 will be the release of Angular 8.

It seems you are always 1 version behind.

With the current template (on .net 2.2) I got it working with Angular7 + SSR.

The only thing I can't get working for SSR is optimization or bundling together (both on server), if I enable one of them it works, together they don't (cause i don't want to copy all node_modules for SSR).

NOTE

• I had to do several changes/fixes in order to get SSR workin (even for Angular 6)

SSR Error with optimization + bundling

Looks like Angular 8 is going to be released before 3.0 ships, so we'll wait for that instead and skip update to Angular 7.
I'm updating the title to reuse this issue for that purpose.

I manually upgraded the angular app that runs under asp.net core 2.2 to 8.0 Preview. One major problem that I came across was that the app generates an error related to SSL quite often in Chrome, but not on edge. I posted a question in stackoverflow regarding this.

Looks like Angular 8 was released end of May, I can add it

[mkArtakMSFT]

Moving this to preview 8, as we're blocked on security review.

[ngohungphuc]

Is ther any update on my PR #10616 ?

[mkArtakMSFT]

@ngohungphuc we're working through some security-related aspects of this, before we can take it.
