About:
Ionic Lab is a desktop application for developing, testing, and debugging Ionic framework applications. It provides a native environment to preview apps on multiple device types and screen sizes, and integrates directly with the Ionic CLI for streamlined development workflows.
Key Features:
  • Live app preview on simulated iOS and Android devices
  • Integrated development server with live reload
  • Direct integration with the Ionic CLI for project commands
  • Debugging tools for inspecting app state and console output
Use Cases:
  • Rapid prototyping and testing of Ionic hybrid mobile applications
  • Visual debugging and layout verification across different screen resolutions
Alternatives:
  • capacitor – Official native runtime for Ionic; used for building/deploying to real devices rather than desktop simulation.
  • browser-dev-tools – Built-in browser tools for web debugging but lack dedicated Ionic project integration and multi-device preview.
