Description

Many modern AngularJS developers have moved to Webpack, SCSS, and TypeScript. Currently we have a TypeScript starter branch but it uses JSPM and CSS.

It would be good to show the community a solid starter repo that combined Webpack, SCSS, and TypeScript so that we could

  • Reproduce issues that some developers run into
  • Document and recommend ways to consume the AngularJS Material SCSS
  • Help the community move closer to a smooth upgrade path for Angular and Angular Material
  • Look at making this starter available via Stackblitz

Research direction
Examine the existing TypeScript starter branch that uses JSPM and CSS (mentioned in the issue). Determine the Webpack configuration needed for AngularJS Material, including SCSS support. Look into current AngularJS Material SCSS documentation. Consider how to make the starter available on Stackblitz. Reach out to maintainers for guidance on desired layout and features.
