I haven’t tested closure with later versions of Angular since this post. tsickle was the tool that enabled TypeScript to emit what was necessary for closure compiler to receive the annotations it needed for ADVANCED. Since this post was written the Angular team has lost and gained members, reprioritized certain initiatives. AFAIK closure compiler is still used at Google so there has to be some level of support for it internally, but I haven’t kept up with what changes are needed to the configuration of a project, if any. Sorry I can’t be if more help. The methods in this tutorial should overlap with getting other build tools to work.
