How do you set up Angular Fire 2 with a new Ionic 2 project? I have a new blank project and when I run the command below I receive nothing but errors. ``` npm install angularfire2 ``` ---

You will have to wait for the upgrade to angular 2 rc1 before getting this to work. See this issue on github [https://github.com/driftyco/ionic/issues/6493](https://github.com/driftyco/ionic/issues/6493) ---

You can also always rollback to an older version of angular fire to start the development. npm install angularfire2@2.0.0-alpha.16 This version is working with the actual ionic version
