title: Keeping CSS out of JS in Angular 2/Angular-CLI
body: <p>By default, Angular 2 compiles the CSS into JavaScript, especially when using WebPack as in Angular-CLI. I would rather this not happen for a couple of reasons.</p>
  
  <p>The first reason is that when I'm developing, I find it really helps to be able to see in the developer tools exactly what style sheet a specific style rule was coming from and what line number it was on. The second reason is that I think compiling CSS into the code kind of misses the point of good CSS, which is that you can apply a different style sheet and have an entirely different look and feel with the same markup.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a flag somewhere that I can set to leave the CSS in .css files, where IMO it belongs?</p>
