For my iOS and Android app built with Ionic and Angular, I typically use ionic serve
in Chrome for easy and fast development.
However, when it comes to utilizing the native HTTP API for essential tasks like communicating with a REST server, I've found that things get challenging. While the native HTTP API works fine in production for iOS and Android apps, it doesn't function properly in the web app mode I use for development.
I am aware of options like live reload for iOS and Android, but I find them to be quite sluggish in comparison.
So, I'd like to hear your thoughts: Do you prefer working directly with iOS/Android emulators/devices or have you also encountered similar issues while using the web app? If so, how did you overcome them?
