Your Environment

Angular CLI: 17.0.1
Node: 20.9.0
Package Manager: npm 10.1.0
OS: win32 x64

Angular: 17.0.3
... animations, common, compiler, compiler-cli, core, forms
... platform-browser, platform-browser-dynamic, router

Package                         Version
---------------------------------------------------------
@angular-devkit/architect       0.1700.1
@angular-devkit/build-angular   17.0.1
@angular-devkit/core            17.0.1
@angular-devkit/schematics      17.0.1
@angular/cli                    17.0.1
@schematics/angular             17.0.1
rxjs                            7.8.1
typescript                      5.2.2
zone.js                         0.14.2

Anything else relevant?

I got this to work thanks to ai telling me to "include": ["src/**/*.ts"] to compiler options, but I want to be able to run ng new on a project and serve the starter app, which isn't happening - also the case when generating a new SSR project, out of the box.

I noticed npm -g list @angular/cli is 17.0.1 and @angular/core is 17.0.3 so I am going to make sure -g @angular/core is 17.0.1 and try again

update - this didn't fix issue, still

`Building...X [ERROR] File 'src\main.ts' is missing from the TypeScript compilation. [plugin angular-compiler]
