I am sure it worked well without any problems before. Here are my system information and package.json.

System:

    Node : v8.10.0
    npm  : 5.6.0
    OS   : Windows 10

Package.json:

    "ts-node": "4.1.0",
    "tslint": "5.9.1",
    "typescript": "2.4.2"
  },

I guess this problem is related with @ionic/app-scripts issue.

Answer 1

Removing @angular/cli should work for you

if not, change Typescript version to ~2.6.2.

@angular/cli 1.7.3 works with Typescript ~2.6.2 only.
