angular-cli: serve fails complaining app/app.component.ts is missing from TypeScript compilation

Which @angular/* package(s) are the source of the bug?

core

Is this a regression?

Yes

Description

What I did so far:

• npm i -g @angular/cli@latest
• ng new ng-upskill-app
• Removed the HTML in app.component.html (left the router-outlet only)
• Added the control flow blocks a shown in the image.
• saw the errors

I can’t reproduce this again 🙁

Please provide a link to a minimal reproduction of the bug
