It’s strange that nieuw doesn’t own the .ionic directory in their own home directory. Is it possible that you previously used sudo or some other user here? I see you’ve installed nvm, which is a great choice and should eliminate the need for ever using sudo when doing Ionic development.

To fix this, you likely need to use chown to give nieuw back that directory.

Incidentally, it is because of problems like this that I keep insisting over and over again how destructive sudo is.

I did wired stuff… so i end up instelling nvm. But How do I crown to make it work

sudo chown -r user-to-set filepath/wildcard

Dont know exactly how to do this could you explain it to me in baby steps :sweat_smile:?

All commands are executed from a terminal window. U use one to build.
From your project, enter that command
