I got the following error while executing the following command ionic cordova run android in ionic project "uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 20 cannot be smaller than version 22 declared in library". After changing to higher version, set android-minSdkVersion to 23 in config.xml and then executed the project build successful.
config.xml:
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="23" />
