I am new to angular 2 and built a few components. Is there a way to convert those components to webcomponents ? Is there a way to transpile this first and then made available in other (nonangular) web applications for reuse?

You can use web components in Angular2 (with some limitations) but there is no way to transpile or convert it automatically in any way.

  • So Polymer would be suitable to create web components which I can use in angular 2 and non angular sites? – bier hier Apr 29 '16 at 05:29
  • There are a few issues but it's working and Angular will improve interoperability with Polymer and other custom elements.

  • is this answer still true after angular2 final release? We cannot convert an angular2 app to a webcomponent and import it into another web application? – Poku Sep 29 '16 at 09:06

    No, such plans were dropped. It doesn't look like it's planned for later. That might change of course. – Günter Zöchbauer Sep 29 '16 at 09:08
