is there a way to use AOT with angular cli?

I've installed the modules (@angular/compiler @angular/compiler-cli) and when I type ngc -p scr it creates the ngFactory.ts files and compiles it to dist/tsc-out (angular cli default in tsconfig)

not sure how to proceed from here :)

Cheers

Han

All recent beta versions of the Angular CLI support AoT via the following:

ng serve --aot
ng build --aot
#and of course
ng build --prod --aot

Note: As of Angular CLI 1.0.0-beta.28 (released February 1st, 2017), --aot is on by default if --prod is specified.
