Answer 4

This can happen on different versions on angular-cli. You can install it manually with

 npm i -D @angular-devkit/core 

-D is shortcut to --save-dev

Or try the latest version of angular cli

npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@latest

Answer 5

package.json, change to "@angular/cli": "^1.6.5",

 "devDependencies": {
"@angular/cli": "^1.6.5",
"@angular/compiler-cli": "^5.0.0",

Important, the version could be vary depends on what time.

You really should run

 npm update -g @angular/cli 

first, to get version, my is 1.6.5

What does the "^" do?

 ~1.0.2 means to install version 1.0.2 or the latest patch version such as 1.0.4. 

  ^1.0.2 means to install version 1.0.2 or the latest minor or patch version such as 1.1.0.

last, run this

   npm update

Answer 6

Just run:

npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@latest

In the project folder, to fix it.

Answer 7

You can do

First,

And add devkit to your dev dependancies with npm i -D @angular-devkit/core

Answer 8

Step 1: delete package-lock.json Step 2: npm update -g @angular/cli Step 3: update @angular/cli new version in package.json Step 4: npm install

It worked for me.

Answer 9

I only installed my angular/cli using:
npm install -g @angular/[email protected]
And I started getting this error.

Solution:
If your version is global and
If you don't mind the version of your angular/cli then type:
npm update -g @angular/cli

Answer 10

for me adding @angular-devkit/core solved the issue

npm install --save-dev @angular-devkit/core

Answer 11

I had this same error after updating some packages.

In my package.json I had the most current '@angular-devkit/core'

Using the standard solution to many problems:

rm -R node_modules/
npm install

And I updated the @angular/cli

npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@latest

and finally:

npm start

Answer 12

Only change "@angular/cli": "1.6.4", to "@angular/cli": "^1.6.4", and update npm with: npm update

Answer 13

I did it by deleting package-lock.json and the node_modules folder. After that run "npm install" and start the application again.
