Creating JavaScript file instead of TypeScript with ng new command

Question

I want to use JavaScript in my new Angular 2 project and use ng new command for bootstrapping. But this command creates TypeScript files and I couldn't find any command line option to use JavaScript instead. How can I do that?

But I ask my question to humans. =) So if a hi or thank you is not a waste-of-time, I prefer to write it. Leave them where they are or show a rule against them. Thank you! — ismailarilik

At the current state of the CLI generating JS files and not TS files is not possible.

In the future custom blueprints will be supported in which case you can create your own.
