Any other way to do this?

In your project directory, install lodash

npm install --save lodash

Then you can use it in any .ts file

import * as _ from 'lodash';

But:

This was however failing (lodash file not found during compilation), I had to clean up the project.

@JaganJonnala @elvismercado @Xample,

I am trying to use lodash library in Nativescript angular application.

But end with below mentioned error,

I have described my issue in detail on this forum post,

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!
