v3: Fully documented `ionic build` command?

[janpio]

Right now one can run ionic serve or npm run build (undocumented) to get a simple build from /src to /www. From what I understand, /www is expected to be used if one wants to create a PWA or webserver hosted version of an Ionic app - which more and more people tend to do.

Wouldn't it be great, now that ionic build is not hijacked by ionic cordova build any more, to add and fully document this command to the CLI?

Too early yet. Right now people will update to CLI v3 and type ionic build expecting a Cordova build. Our goal with this first release is to release the stranglehold of the Cordova commands in our CLI so that ionic build can mean something else later. We're basically squatting on our own command name. We haven't changed the build process. npm run build is still a thing for simple builds, and ionic build is now ionic cordova build (which does a simple build beforehand).

Ok, makes sense.
