Links to more applications using esri-system-js

[tomwayson]

If you've got a publicly facing application built w/ esri-system-js, we want to hear about it. Leave a comment on this issue w/ the application name and URL and we'll add it to the Example Applications section of the README, or better yet, make a PR with your own updates to the README.

Thank you!

@tomwayson This is an example app/blog post I did using esri-system-js if you're interested in including:

Thanks @jwerts, I've added this to the README. I like that you include the set up for Jasmine/Karma!

I'd love to see how that works w/ v1.0.0-beta.0. I've opened a PR to @jwasilgeo's repo which could give you an idea of the changes that are involved. The major benefit is being able to use the type definitions from Esri.

@tomwayson Cool! I was waiting to see that PR before updating to v1.0.0-beta.0. Should be testing that out soon. Thanks for your all your work on this!

[jwerts]

Updated my stuff to use v1.0.0-beta.0. Everything's working great now - did have one stumbling block though. Took a while to realize that the module property in tsconfig.json needed to be "system". After setting that, tsc was compiling properly and VS Code was happy w/ intellisense working.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es5",
    "module": "system",
...

[tomwayson]

Awesome! Looks like you even updated the code snippets in the blog post.

Good point about the compilerOptions.module property. TBH, I didn't even realize that was a requirement. I tried setting that to "amd" and saw the TS compile errors like [ts] Module '"esri/views/MapView"' has no default export. in VS Code, but the app did still seem to compile and work in the browser.

Thanks for bringing that to my attention, I'll make a note of that in the README.

@tomwayson I added startup app using esri-system-js to include if you like it

I appreciate all comments

[tomwayson]

thanks @S-Gaballah!

As I'm not doing Angular development these days I'm not really in a position to comment on your project, but I added the link to the README.
