When you are using npm, bower, and git behind a proxy server you have to do a little bit of configuration. Luckily it is super easy to do these configurations. Almost all of the programs have command line commands to set and unset the proxy server. Updates: Updated 2015-Feb-01: Added running source command for Bash and Ruby Gems section Updated 2015-May-07: Added the Ionic Start command Updated 2015-May-08: Added the Android SDK Updated 2015-Aug-03: Added command lines to set proxy Updated 2015-Oct-20: Added Gradle Windows Command Prompt Current Command Prompt Only set http_proxy=[Your Proxy]:[Proxy Port] set https_proxy=[Your Proxy]:[Proxy Port] Unset Current Session set http_proxy= set https_proxy= Globally as a System Environment Variable Run from an administrative command prompt
I am finally making myself learn the git command line instead of just using a UI so that I can actually understand what git is really doing. Plus I have started playing a lot with the IonicBox and running a Ubuntu vagrant controlled VM for this blog and both of those are just linux shell command prompt only machines. Below are my notes on various commands so that I can stop having to Google each time I forgot one of them.
Updates: 2016-08-13: Added Gradle and VS Code to software installed. Changed from JDK7 to JDK8. Removed Ant. Added Android SDK Apis install to Chocolatey script. Switched suggested emulator to Visual Studio Emulator for Android. If you are like me and just starting to work with the Ionic Framework and don’t already have a machine setup to do Android, iOS, Node, etc development then many of the guides out there leave out a number of steps that you need to do in order to get everything working.

Even being a Windows user I was able to pretty easily get Ionic working on a Mac.
The Android emulator is super super slow and I could never get it working on my development virtual machine. I thought no problem I will just use Genymotion but due to a video card driver issue on my laptop (not Genymotion’s fault), I couldn’t use it either. I was thinking ok I will just have to use a real device and always have it on me when I do Android development work.
