Can i run the ionic v1 project when i have ionic CLI 3.0.0 - ionic-framework

Now i have the latest version of ionic 3.0.0. My ionic version: 3.0.0.
And my ionic info:
global packages:
#ionic/cli-utils : 1.0.0
Ionic CLI : 3.0.0
System:
Node : v7.3.0
OS : macOS Sierra
Xcode : Xcode 8.3.2 Build version 8E2002
ios-deploy : 1.9.0
ios-sim : 5.0.13
Now i have two question in this. I searched , but not able to get the clear. If any one can answer. It will be helpful for many new bie like me.
So,
1.Now i have ionic 3.0.0. Then if i want to open the project in ionic v2. i will give ` ionic start newapp blank --v2 or (--ts_)'. And i will use some updated plugin having in ionic 3.0.0. Does it will work out. or i need to create a seperate project for ionic version 3 ??
Now i have old ionic 1 project that i am still working on. So once i update my ionic to3.0.0. Now what i done is :
ionic start newapp blank --v1 then i copied my old project www folder to this newapp and i replaced it.
My question is. Still can i use angular js1 to code for this project also. And while make ionic release means when i want to put it in my app store. Does any problem will occur. Because i have create this project as --v1.
If yes when i create a new project ionic start newapp blank --v1 its asking me Link this app to your Ionic Dashboard to use tools like Ionic View? y/N : what should i need to do
Please clarify me..thanks in advance

Using the ionic-cli version 3.0 you should be able to work on all versions of ionic projects.
The new cli will create an ionic v3 app by default. If you want to create an ionic v1 app, you need to add --v1. But if you are starting with a new app, I strongly recommend going for v2+.
Depending on the version your ionic app has, you need to add some additional plugins:
#ionic/cli-plugin-ionic-angular – Ionic Angular project plugin that provides useful build tools and generators. (ionic v2+)
#ionic/cli-plugin-ionic1 – Ionic 1 project plugin that has functionality ported from the old CLI.
#ionic/cli-plugin-cordova – Essential for an Ionic/Cordova app.
#ionic/cli-plugin-proxy – For proxying CLI requests through a firewall.
I can't tell you if you need to link your app to the dashboard. If you are using the Ionic services (Push, View, etc), then it makes sense.
That being said, I have experienced quite a few "bugs" or inconsistent behaviour with the new cli, so you might need to downgrade if something doesn't work.

I had this same worry when I updated my Ionic to v3 (CLI 3.1.2). They seem to really be pushing to use their cloud services (obviously, they want to start making some money on it).
When I tried the old v1 command:
ionic build ios
I received:
The build command has been renamed. To find out more, run:
ionic cordova build --help
So, then I tried
ionic covdova build ios
That failed with this:
ionic package build ios
[ERROR] Your project file (./ionic.config.json) does not contain 'app_id'. Run ionic link.
So, after looking around a bit, I used this command and it worked:
ionic cordova build ios --v1
It asked me to install a couple of things, then chugged out a new successful build. All good.

Please use following command as I had trouble with "--v1"
ionic start newapp blank --type=ionic1
As mentioned by #Samuel.

Add Ionic 1 CLI to the devDependency list. Open package.json file in the project directory and add the following line to devDependencies.
"#ionic/cli-framework": "^1.0.0-rc.2"
Example package.json:

Running ionic repair removed package.json and node_modules then, if prompted, run npm audit fix, and then you will be asked to Install #angular/cli?

How to create an Ionic v6 Project based on Angular

In versions of the Ionic framework, after Ionic v2, an Ionic v3 Angular project can be created by setting --type=ionic-angular e.g.
ionic start MyApp blank --type=ionic-angular
So even if Ionic v5 is installed the above command would create an Ionic v3 Angular project.
My question is how can I always create an Ionic v6 Angular project, even if I install the latest version of Ionic in 6 months time? E.g. When Ionic v7 is released will there be a way to create an Ionic v6 Angular project?
It will not change, it will stay the same as you posted.
You can force it by installing #ionic/angular version to current version in your package.json file.
However, Ionic is a very unstable framework even after 10 years. Every time there is a new release, old plugins completely get messed up. And you need to update plugins to stay in sync with iOS/Android updates. I have wasted so many hours every time there is a new Ionic or Capacitor release. The process is never straightforward.

Ionic versions - understanding difference between ionic cli version and ionic core version

I am starting to work on an existing Ionic 4 application. In that project #ionic/core version is 4.8.1. To start, I installed ionic CLI and noticed its version to be 5.4.15. I was not able to find easily if I can install an older ionic CLI version.
However, I feel CLI version and the application version need not be the same always. So, now, I would like to know how these things are related. Also, for me to run my existing project, can I use the same version of ionic CLI.
I wanted to mention that all ionic-native/**** references are 5.10.0 which I think should fine as #ionic/core and #ionic/angular is the version which says what my ionic project version is.

Ionic 4 Angular 6 create app not asking Cordova Integration question

I'm new to Ionic, and just installed it and i also installed Cordova on my Ubuntu 18.04 machine, then i used the command to create an app using these commands
npm install -g ionic
npm install -g cordova
then i used the command to create an app using these
ionic start ionic4Tut --type=angular
but I'm not getting the question about integrating cordova to the project as shown in all the tutorials,
Integrate your new app with Cordova to target native iOS and Android? (y/N)
anyone know way is that?
I was having the same problem and what I did was after creating the project using
$ionic start projName --type=angular
I will cd to my project folder and run
$ionic cordova platform
that will solve your problem.
Cordova is what the Ionic framework uses to target native functionality for mobile devices. It does this because Ionic is primarily a mobile app framework. If you don't want to integrate it and want to use nothing but the development framework, you may as well use Angular on it's own.

Ionic Share feature not working

I've been using Ionic for a while, including the "ionic share" command from the CLI.
However, recently, that command fails with:
$ ionic share
Invalid command (CLI v2.2.2)
Your system information:
Cordova CLI: 6.4.0
Ionic CLI Version: 2.2.2
Ionic App Lib Version: 2.2.1
ios-deploy version: 1.9.0
ios-sim version: 5.0.13
OS: macOS Sierra
Node Version: v6.9.3
Xcode version: Xcode 8.3 Build version 8E16
Has anyone run into this issue?
Thanks,
Wayne
As of now the Ionic CLI doesn't recognize the ionic share command, though their documentation hasn't updated this information.
However, you can now share your app from your ionic.io account:
Dashboard > Settings icon next to the app you want to share > Share
Then you'll be able to enter email addresses to share your preview with. Just had to go through that drudgery myself.
I wanted to add that I found
ionic upload
to be a worthwhile CLI replacement for pushing new data up.

How do I install a specific version of crosswalk using ionic cli2

I currently have an ionic 1 project, but have just switched to using ionic cli2. I previously used to add crosswalk into my project, by running the following command, as mentioned here.
ionic browser add crosswalk
However, ionic cli2 no longer supports the browser command, and I am unsure how to install it in the correct way.
Any help would be appreciated.
It seems the answer is as follows:
I need to run
ionic plugin add cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview
