ATTENTION: Upcoming Ionic 2 Starter Changes

Hello Ionites! Just want to give the community a heads up about changes that are going to be happening to Ionic 2 projects. None of these have happened yet, but we want to give everyone a word of warning before everything breaks and the world ends. This has been done The first one will be moving from the ionic-framework package name to ionic-angular. We will still publish ionic-framework for the next release, but the starters will move to ionic-angular once the CLI has been updated…

The gulpfile is there for now, but doesn’t do anything. But up coming releases of the CLI will start to use the gulpfile instead. Then you’ll be able to use and customize everything
