When running the example app using either the example:start or the example:start:aot script, the compilation of the app fail with the following errors:

Same for me
[ts] An interface may only extend a class or another interface.

I think a related issue can be found in #455

[brannon-darby]

this appears to have surfaced after the addition of support for using string or number for id:

46d6f2f

I fixed my own project by simply including ids and entities in my State interface instead of extending EntityState:

export interface State {
  ids: any[]
  entities: {}
  selectedId: any
  count: number
}

@brandonroberts - is this the right approach, or is there a cleaner solution you might be able to offer?

[brandonroberts]

@brannon-darby that would suffice for now. There is already a PR that will fix this issue

[sanbornsen]

@brannon-darby @brandonroberts This PR - #457 should fix it.

Fixed via #454
