title: Is it possible to use NPM Link for an angular library without first building the library?
body: <p>I have an angular library that can be built into a node module.</p>
  
  <p>In order to use my local version without publishing it, and test that it is working on several apps, I am trying to use the <code>npm link</code> command.</p>
  
  <p>I have done this by navigating to the dist folder of my library where package.json is found and running npm link. I then navigate to the app I want to use it and run npm link THE_LIBRARY_NAME. This works fine but if I update the library I will need to rebuild it, and when I rebuild it the link breaks so I have to repeat the steps.</p>
  
  <p>If I try to link to the library itself, and not the node module it outputs, I get a 'Cant find module' error.</p>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong please?</p>
  
  <p>Trying to link to the library itself does seem to actually work, I can find it in node_modules, but to clarify the import does not find that module.</p>
