How to delete an application in Angular 2?

Question

I am trying to delete an application. I have created a new application using ng new. Now I want to delete that application. Can I do it using CLI? Or can I delete the folder directly?

Probably you mean deleting a project in Angular multi-project workspace. To do it:

Remove block for project in angular.json
Delete project folder in workspace
Delete project folder in dist folder
Be sure that all Node.js processes are closed (e.g. in Task Manager, if you use Windows)

There is no CLI option for delete. You can manually delete the folder.

Answer for deletion with command line:

You must delete it manually, you can directly delete or use the rmdir command or del command in cmd prompt. But you also need to use /s option to recursively on rmdir do that with the project folder else it won't go ahead.
