Cannot add Material Design to Angular 4 project - node.js

Question

I try to add Material Design to my project following the official tutorial ( https://material.angular.io/guide/getting-started ) but I get an error:
node_modules/#angular/cdk/typings/rxjs/rx-operators.d.ts(11,10): error TS2305: Module '"path_to_project/nod
e_modules/rxjs/Scheduler"' has no exported member 'IScheduler'.
node_modules/#angular/platform-browser/animations/src/providers.d.ts(8,119): error TS2305: Module '"path_to_project/node_modules/#angular/animations/browser"' has no exported member 'ɵDomAnimationEngine'.
I cannot find solution in the forums.

Newest material-2.0.0-beta.8 has a dependency on #angular/cdk which has a dependency on rxjs version 5.0.3 or greater.
So you have to change the rxjs version in your package.json:
npm install rxjs#5.0.3 --save
or
"rxjs": "~5.0.3"
Also, #angular/animations version 4.2.x has a know issue of
error TS2305: Module '"path_to_project/node_modules/#angular/animations/browser"' has no exported member 'ɵDomAnimationEngine'.
If you still get this error, you might need to fall back to version 4.1.x.
npm install '#angular/animations"#4.1.3' --save
