How does angular 2 work with jquery?

Question

I know that Angular 1 ran a subset of jQuery called jqlite. Does Angular 2 support an expanded subset? and moreover, does angular 2 still support direct-inject jQuery?

I don't know what you mean by "support direct-inject jQuery". You can use jQuery with Angular but if you want to use features like WebWorker or serverside rendering you can't use jQuery with Angular. Angular itself doesn't provide a subset of jQuery.

I think it's considered bad practice to use and direct DOM access in general should be avoided.

I suppose I meant referencing jQuery in the html using `` will pull in the full jQuery toolset into Angular. – Beshoy Hanna May 06 '16 at 12:06

That can be done. See the linke @echonax posted above. – Günter Zöchbauer May 06 '16 at 12:08
