Bootstrapped components are defined in the `bootstrap` property of an `@NgModule` decorator or as the first parameter of `bootstrapApplication` for standalone components.

This error happens when Angular tries to bootstrap one of these components but cannot find its corresponding node in the DOM.

@debugging
This issue occurs when the selector mismatches the tag
```typescript
@Component ({
selector: 'my-app',
...
})
class AppComponent {}
```
```html
< html >
< app-root > < / app-root > <!-- Doesn't match the selector -->
< / html >
```
Replace the tag with the correct one:
```html
< html >
< my-app > < / my-app > <!-- OK -->
< / html >
```
