Ionic Framework : How to Upgrade to Ionic 2

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I use ionic stable version to build Hybrid Mobile Application and things going fine.

Now, I would like to use Ionic 2 for its components features. Hence, I have installed ionic on ubuntu as

$ npm install -g ionic@beta

And then start using ionic started template as

$ ionic start IonicMyV2 --v2

However, the above command always brings the stable version ionic template.

What I am doing wrong? What procedure do I have to follow to use Ionic 2?

You can remove the need for sudo with npm by installing NodeJS via brew:

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

brew install node

node -v
npm -v

npm install -g ionic@beta
