I fixed the issue. You can pull the repo (master branch or 2.1.0 tag); Please follow those steps if you want to fix this mannually, :

1/ In webpack.config.js, replace AotPlugin to AngularCompilerPlugin

• line 13

const { AngularCompilerPlugin } = require('@ngtools/webpack');

• line 168:

    plugins.push(new AngularCompilerPlugin({
      entryModule: "src/app/app.module#AppModule",
      "mainPath": "main.ts",
      "hostReplacementPaths": {
        "environments/index.ts": "environments/index.prod.ts"
      },
      "exclude": [],
      "tsConfigPath": "src/tsconfig.app.json"
    }));

line 189

    plugins.push(new AngularCompilerPlugin({
      entryModule: "src/app/app.module#AppModule",
      "mainPath": "main.ts",
      "hostReplacementPaths": {
        "environments/index.ts": "environments/index.ts"
      },
      "exclude": [],
      "tsConfigPath": "src/tsconfig.app.json"
    }));

2/ In tsconfig.ts , replace value of AllowJs from true to false. There is an issue in aot compilation with Angular 5 (https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/19757)

It should fix the problem.
