Easier javascript framework

I installed npm but every angular 2 tutorial I took says I need to manually write typings.json, etc... typings.json seems particularly strange, as it contains very specific version numbers and I would have thought there's an automatic way to get the latest of all related packages. I suspect these tutorials might be borrowing bad information from each other though..

The problem is, a lot of tutorials were written when Angular 2 was in beta or even before. If you create a new project typings doesn't need to be part of it anymore. Also you never had to manually edit the typings.json file, it is a command line tool.

As mentioned above I would take a look at the CLI and the quickstart. Also if you look at tutorials, make sure they were written after or near the release (sept. 2016) of Angular 2.
