How to use jQuery Plugin with Angular 4

Question

I want to use a range slider in an angular project and I tried using one available module for angular 4   It works fine during compilation but when I try to build it for deployment  it throws the below error     I checked for the option of using jQuery plugin directly in the angular project and I m only getting options for doing it in Angular 2   Is there any way we can use jQuery plugins in Angular 4   Please let me know    Thanks in advance

If you have the need to use other libraries in projects --typescript-- not just in projects - angle - you can look for tds s  TypeScript Declaration File  that are depares and that have information of methods  types  functions  etc    which can be used by TypeScript  usually without the need for import  declare var is the last resource  npm install  types lib-name --save-dev

You should not use jQuery in Angular  While it is possible  see other answers for this question   it is discouraged  Why   Angular holds an own representation of the DOM in its memory and doesn t use query-selectors  functions like document getElementById id   like jQuery  Instead all the DOM-manipulation is done by Renderer2  and Angular-directives like  ngFor and  ngIf accessing that Renderer2 in the background framework-code   If you manipulate DOM with jQuery yourself you will sooner or later      Run into synchronization problems and have things wrongly appearing or not disappearing at the right time from your screen Have performance issues in more complex components  as Angular s internal DOM-representation is bound to zone js and its change detection-mechanism - so updating the DOM manually will always block the thread your app is running on  Have other confusing errors you don t know the origin of  Not being able to test the application correctly  Jasmine requires you to know when elements have been rendered  Not being able to use Angular Universal or WebWorkers   If you really want to include jQuery  for duck-taping some prototype that you will 100  definitively throw away   I recommend to at least include it in your package json with npm install --save jquery instead of getting it from google s CDN      TLDR  For learning how to manipulate the DOM in the Angular way please go through the official tour-of heroes tutorial first  https   angular io tutorial toh-pt2 If you need to access elements higher up in the DOM hierarchy  parent or document body  or for some other reason directives like  ngIf   ngFor  custom directives  pipes and other angular utilities like  style background    class myOwnCustomClass   don t satisfy your needs  use Renderer2  https   www concretepage com angular-2 angular-4-renderer2-example
