How do I apply css animations to angular2 components before they are destroyed/removed?
<p>Good morning!</p>

<p>While we wait for the new ng2-animate library to be completed, is there another way to animate elements before they're removed from the dom?</p>

<p>I am using an element with an *ngIf attribute. When the element is added to the DOM, I can animate it in with no problems. When the element is removed, transitions don't apply.</p>

<p>I've tried using the lifecycle hooks by listening for an <em>animationend</em> event in ngOnDestroy, and I've tried using renderer. The latter isn't documented yet.</p>

<p>Do I just need to lean on JQuery for now?</p>
