Fixed the error “cannot read property ‘unshift’ of undefined” while executing ng add @ng-toolkit/universal using the steps: Step 1:@ng-toolkit/universal, in package.json appears the new dependency, (might be with older version dependency but in 1.1.2 version “@ng-toolkit/universal”: “1.1.21”,) Step 2:Delete universal folder in the location node_modules@ng-toolkit Step 3: Change the line in package.json to 7.1.2:: “@ng-toolkit/universal”: “7.1.2”, Step 4: now run the command ng add @ng-toolkit/universal@7.1.2

Hi guys, I`m a little bit confused in regards with the .Net Core Web API side.

When I’m installing this package, and then i do a build --prod in order to get the files inside the wwwroot inside the .NET CORE web API project and then i press start, it doesnt do anything. What Im missing from here? I guess somehow i would need to run the server like ng run server or something.

Who I would integrate this with .NET CORE Web API backend?
