I was in the same boat - Watched Angular 2 presentations live (was it ng-conf or something?), was excited about Angular Universal and the Angular CLI that was announced.

Turns out the CLI didn't play nice with Universal. I spent a week trying to convert the bare bones Angular 2 tutorial 'tour of heroes' into an Angular Universal architecture. I couldn't figure it out. Lots of version mismatches and either out of date or 404'd documentation.

I just gave up. If I couldn't convert a simple project to do server side rendering there was no way I'd be able to convert a more complicated project.
