* giving new CI validation script a test run
* tidy up CI script in prep for PR
* seeing if validate runs fine with a `npm ci` install
* using newer/faster node
* does this version have new NPM?
* does node 9 have npm 5.7?
* seeing how forcing 5.7 compares on speed
* trying node 8.9 again
* sticking with 8.9, but ditching `npm ci` for now
* trying just 8 so I can see if it gets LTS updates
* benign commit to trigger a build ahead of PR
* trying Circle CI v2
* paths are fun
* seeing how long a demos build takes
* Batching Demo builds
* testing demo builds on CI2
* batches count from 0
* ok, looks good. preparing for master branch
* forgot `production=true` flag. let’s test that quick.
* forgot to save the file
* making sure that docs are still copied over to ionic-site in the deploy phase
* getting ready for the PR again
