  <p><code>&lt;script src="../node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</code> </p>
  
  <p>in the index.html seems to be not working:</p>
  
  <p>Failed to load resource: <a href="http://localhost:4200/node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js" rel="noreferrer">http://localhost:4200/node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js</a>
