Downgrade Ionic 2 Version

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Suppose I have an Ionic 2 project with RC1 version.

How can I downgrade it to beta 11 version ? Thank you.

I am not sure but I think you need to first downgrade your ionic npm install, and then move your sources structure from RC1 to beta11…

downgrade ionic RC1 to beta11 :

npm uninstall -g ionic
npm install -g ionic@2.0.0-beta.31

then create a beta 11 project :

ioni start --v2 myApp

then do the opposite of the change log from beta to RC :

I would have said that, but I guess someone else can be more accurate than me…

I was tempted to do the research and answer, but the right answer is to tell you downgrading a project (even if the project is not working anymore on RC1) is a VERY bad idea.
The framework is constantly evolving and there are significant changes introduced with each beta or even RC, and it’s going to be more difficult to upgrade later.

Alternatively, if you want to go back to beta doing npm install -g ionic@version_number_here might work, but dealing with the rest of the dependencies might be a nightmare.
