Can't build the angular 2 github project

Question

I have forked the angular 2 github repo, clone it in my desktop, add upstream then run npm install, but when I want to build ($(npm bin)/gulp build) i have an error message:

"Task 'build' is not in your gulpfile"

How can I properly build the project?

Try gulp build.sh for more recent versions. You can also run simply ./build.sh from the base directory. For future reference you can see a list of gulp tasks using gulp -T.

Make sure you're using the correct version of node (use nvm if you need to) as described in the developer guide.
