Ionic serve command resets the index.html page

Question

I've recently started developing in Ionic, and I find that once I've made changes to the index.html file and run it (ionic serve), it resets the index.html file.

I think I might be missing a step somewhere, any ideas?

Found the error. I was editing the file in the www folder and not the one in the src folder. Once I updated the index.html file in the src folder, the changes appear in the file in the www folder.

However, I find that when I update the controllers in the src/js folder, they are not updated in the www/js folder, so I have to make updates to the files in the www/js folder.

Not really sure of what's going on.

Answer 1

src folder is true development folder.

When ionic builds the app for you it automatically copies all the required files from src/ to www/ .

If its not happening there might be something wrong with project, try removing and adding platform again.
