Command

serve

Description

I want to pass environment variables into the application during serve and build. In Angular 19, this works for build: ng build --define="GGCC_TARGET='hosted'", while this doesn't for serve: ng serve --define="GGCC_TARGET='hosted'", with the following error:

Error: Unknown argument: define

Describe the solution you'd like

The --define argument works for both serve and build commands.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The custom "@ngx-env/builder:application" builder works, but I'd prefer to keep the amount of extra libraries to a minimum. Given how that builder is merely a thin wrapper around "@angular/build:application", I don't see why this couldn't work as I expect out of the box.
