I was staring at empty /dist directory today and it took me couple of hours to figure out why that npm command does not fail the whole Gradle build anymore. The flag “stats-json” (added days ago as a good advice and best practice from local Angular guru) had to go away. I kindly ask for fixing this. It indeed is CI killer when applied.
