title: When I run "npm start" I get a "SyntaxError: Unexpected token import" on a normal Angular 2 project
body: <p>I have tried npm update, npm start then install, but the error seems oddly at the beginning of loading the app itself.</p>
  
  <p>How could it not recognize "import", the very first word of the normal standard bootstrapping file?</p>
  
  <p>The stacktrace is:</p>
