##Angular CLI (ng serve)

To run the standard angular-cli ng serve on a Cloud9 box, you need to specify the cloud9 specific ports the preview runs off as well as define a live preview port. So instead of the angular-cli command of ng serve, run the following:

ng serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080 --live-reload-port 8081

The port configuration is the important part to make sure it is accessible to preview. Once running, preview the App as per usual in Cloud9 via the "Preview" button (no need to use the "Run" button).

To make things easier, you can assign that command to an alias:

###Restore an Ionic App to state left by other developer

This will restore any platforms and cordova plugins listed in the package.json file under cordovePlugins and cordovaPlatforms. These are platforms and plugins added via ionic platform add and ionic plugin add rather than via npm (which live in platforms and plugins in the package.json file).

ionic state restore

###Change the network address for live preview

Sometimes you need to switch which network address live preview is going to listen to on ionic run --device -l or ionic serve --lab calls, this can be done by:

Safe function calls

As described by David Walsh: http://davidwalsh.name/function-attempt

function attempt(fn, args, binding) {
	try {
		return fn.apply(binding, args);
	} catch(e) {
		console.log('Exception, fix me please', e);

}
