Hi, I want to switch to the .min versions of the libs. If I delete the normal un-compressed javascript files. when I build the app, it just creates them again.

Thanks

Where are you deleting the files? The platform level or the project root?

If you’re editing in the platform level, you shouldn’t be. When you run `ionic build`, it will copy all the files in the `www` files and past them in the platform specific folder.
