title: Side-menu doesn't show in my Ionic app
body: <p>I am very new with the ionic framework. I am trying to make a side-menu myself. I started the project with this command.</p>
  <p><code>ionic start testproject blank</code></p>
  <p>In my new project I added the code for the side-menu from the documentation like this.</p>
  <p><strong>App.html</strong></p>
  <pre><code>&lt;ion-menu [content]=&quot;content&quot;&gt;
      &lt;ion-header&gt;
          &lt;ion-toolbar&gt;
              &lt;ion-title&gt;Category&lt;/ion-title&gt;
          &lt;/ion-toolbar&gt;
      &lt;/ion-header&gt;
      &lt;ion-content&gt;
          &lt;ion-list&gt;
              &lt;button ion-item&gt;
                  Home
              &lt;/button&gt;
          &lt;/ion-list&gt;
      &lt;/ion-content&gt;
  &lt;/ion-menu&gt;
  
  &lt;ion-nav [root]=&quot;rootPage&quot; #content&gt;&lt;/ion-nav&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>And this is my code in typescript.</p>
  <p><strong>app.component.ts</strong></p>
  <pre><code>import { Component } from '@angular/core';
  import { Platform, MenuController } from 'ionic-angular';
  import { StatusBar } from '@ionic-native/status-bar';
  import { SplashScreen } from '@ionic-native/splash-screen';
  
  import { HomePage } from '../pages/home/home';
  @Component({
    templateUrl: 'app.html'
  })
  export class MyApp {
    rootPage:any = HomePage;
  
    constructor(platform: Platform, statusBar: StatusBar, splashScreen: SplashScreen, menu: MenuController) {
      platform.ready().then(() =&gt; {
        // Okay, so the platform is ready and our plugins are available.
        // Here you can do any higher level native things you might need.
        statusBar.styleDefault();
        splashScreen.hide();
        menu.enable(true);
      });
    }
  }
  </code></pre>
  <p>I get no error in the developer console only one warning and a message like this.</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Angular is running in the development mode. Call enableProdMode() to enable the production mode.</p>
  <p>Native: tried calling StatusBar.styleDefault, but Cordova is not available. Make sure to include cordova.js or run in a device/simulator</p>
  <p>Native: tried calling SplashScreen.hide, but Cordova is not available. Make sure to include cordova.js or run in a device/simulator</p>

  <p>Can someone point me in the right direction what I am doing wrong to show my side-menu?</p>
