VS2022 Angular project with standalone components - Typescript Linting totally broken

In VS2022 create Angular project.

Convert components to standalone.

Delete NgModule

Bootstrap AppComponent

Add a test component and import into AppComponent.

Problem 1.

VS complains that any new component is not standalone. Standalone is the default for Angular 19. No other configuration should be required.



Problem 2.

If I work around the first probem by adding standalone: true to the component decoration, VS then fails to recognise any inputs for any component.



Problem 3

Since the last update VS is hanging and going unresponsive or sometimes even crashing to desktop opening a solution with an Angular project. Any other project type is no problem.


The ng cli compiles the project with no issues or warnings at all. It's as if VS2022 is using the wrong Javascript/Typescript language service, although I see no way to know what version it's using, let alone how to change it.

VS Code has no issues at all. Lints all projects correctly and does not crash.

Is anyone else have the same issues? Anyone got any ideas how to fix?
