I am running npm run build on terminal but the script isn't executing. It just runs but doesn't do anything.

Attaching my package.json:

{
  "name": "angular2-starter",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "scripts":{
      "build":"tsc --rootDir src --outDir dist"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@angular/common": "2.4.7",
    "@angular/compiler": "2.4.7",
    "@angular/core": "2.4.7",
    "@angular/forms": "2.4.7",
    "@angular/http": "2.4.7",
    "@angular/platform-browser": "2.4.7",
    "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "2.4.7",
    "@angular/router": "3.4.7",
    "core-js": "2.4.1",
    "reflect-metadata": "0.1.9",
    "rxjs": "5.1.1",
    "zone.js": "0.7.7"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "typescript": "^2.1.5",
    "typings": "^2.1.0"
  }
}

This is what I am getting on running:

$ npm run build

> angular2-starter@0.1.0 build C:\Users\user\desktop\angular2-starter
> tsc --rootDir src --outDir dist

Tried checking `npm build` doesn't run the script named "build" in package.json but couldn't resolve the error.

Please tell me what wrong am I doing here.

it IS running the script, as shown by `> tsc --rootDir src --outDir dist`. so npm and package.json are unrelated – Kevin B Feb 17 '17 at 15:55
`unrelated` what does this mean? – Aakash Thakur Feb 17 '17 at 15:57
It means not related. Not part of the problem. Your problem is with `tsc` – Kevin B Feb 17 '17 at 15:57
Alright. Can you guide me to some source where I can seek answers? – Aakash Thakur Feb 17 '17 at 15:58
No, i'm unfamiliar with tsc. – Kevin B Feb 17 '17 at 16:00
thanx anyways.. – Aakash Thakur Feb 17 '17 at 16:03
I don't think the problem is with `tsc` because when I run the command from `node_modules/.bin` it does create a `dist` folder in the project. So it has something to do with the `build` or the command I guess. @KevinB – Aakash Thakur Feb 17 '17 at 16:15
