Description

The Angular-CLI recipe is great, but it's only targeted at Chrome. Now that Debugger for Firefox is officially supported, it would be awesome to add two configurations for Firefox. Currently, the only key that causes problem is sourceMapPathOverrides. This configuration could be useful to Angular Snippets.
