    <pre>
      <code>{{ node }}</code>
    </pre>
  `
})
export class AppComponent implements AfterContentInit {
  node: string;

  constructor(private elementRef: ElementRef) { }

  ngAfterContentInit() {
    const tmp = document.createElement('div');
    const el = this.elementRef.nativeElement.cloneNode(true);

    tmp.appendChild(el);
    this.node = tmp.innerHTML;
  }
