In terms of the Angular code, is it still on Angular 2?

We are on Angular 6 right now but the plan is to stay up-to-date as much as possible

If I am running on Angular CLI 8 will that work when I go through those exercises or should I downgrade?

For the time been you will need to downgrade but it would be great if you can help with the angular update. If interested please reach the angular dspace 7 developers on dspace slack in the #angular-ui channel
