ViewsIE11 Angular 2 error "Expected identifier, string or number"
Well, I have created site using Angular 2. When I run "ng-serve" command and trying to test my site using "http://localhost:4200" in Google Chrome and IE11 it works perfectly, but, if I build project using "ng-build --prod", host it on IIS. Site still works on Chrome, but IE11 shows the following errors:
I googled it and found that it was maybe reserved words in my identifiers key:value pairs. So I added Apostrophes(') arround my keys. For example I had the following object:
user:UserViewModel={
Username:"",
Age:0
};
and changed this to:
user:UserViewModel={
'Username':"",
'Age':0
};
Also deleted last commas in key:value pairs and imported core.js in polyfills.ts

The main problem is IE has Compatibility Mode enabled by default. And IE 11 has some compatibility mode issues. As per the followings question answer Angular 2 / 4 not working in IE11
When I tried to disable the compatibility mode off It works fine.
But ingeneral user will not off the compatibility mode. So I want a good solution for that.
Then I found following solution form Force IE compatibility mode off using tags
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />

No. These are not relevant to IE11.
Fix
You are most likely running raw .ts files. You should be hosting (in your script tags) the bundled / built .js files.
