We just added a new feature to the Ionic CLI<\/a> tool that we’re calling Ionic Lab<\/strong>. Ionic Lab makes it much easier to test your apps on multiple screen sizes and platform types:<\/p>\n

\"Image\"

We want Ionic to be both a great SDK and a toolchain that gives hybrid developers a leg up on native, and this is one of our first big steps in that direction.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To get started with Ionic Lab, make sure to update to the latest version of Ionic in NPM:<\/p>\n

$ npm install -g ionic\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
We’ve extended the serve<\/code> command to open the new Lab UI:<\/p>\n
$ ionic serve --lab\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
If you’ve used the serve<\/code> command before, you’ll feel right at home with this one. Just like serve<\/code>, it opens
\nyour app in a browser, but now it shows you what your app will look like on a phone, with both iOS and Android
\nside by side. <\/p>\n
And of course, it supports Live Reload and all the other goodies we’ve added over the last couple of months.<\/p>\n
We hope you enjoy this new feature. Expect a lot<\/em> more from Ionic Lab in the near future!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
