[Resolved] Cannot find module ‘@angular/animations’
When you are using angular material with angular 4 then you will come across this error “Cannot find module ‘@angular/animations’“.
In angular 2 when you install angular material angular animations also will be installed and imported from core. but now in angular 4 angular animation is moved to a separate package and angular/core is deprecated.
So inorder to make the animation work properly with angular 4 then you need to install angular animation separately,
npm install –save @angular/animations@latest
After the successful installation, import the angular animation in ngModule:
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from ‘@angular/platform-browser/animations’;
Also in,
imports: [
BrowserModule,
FormsModule,
HttpModule,
BrowserAnimationsModule,
MaterialModule
],
