i don't see the 'style:' function auto populate font format and size. I feel like I am missing a simple step here.

while adding the component class for the 'hello world app', the style function doesn't auto populate methods like font format and font size for me, like shown in the video. I think this is something really simple that I am missing.

Did you use back ticks? On most keyboards, the back tick key is next to the key that has 1 and !.

By the way, Treehouse has many great courses. In my humble opinion, this isn't one of them. The instructor is wonderful, but the content is overly confusing.

I found the Angular 4 Basics course on YouTube to better explain step by small step not only what to do, but also why. Also, it uses something called the CLI (command line interface) to generate components with all the imports and exports for you, so you can concentrate on the code. It is what developers use; not sure why this course doesn't. Anyway, the first 2 hours of that course are free; if you like it, you can get the whole course on Udemy for $15 using link in description. Or right now for $10 as there is a sale going on.
