How to use ACE without ngrok as a dependency?

[Rob Frymire]

We are in the process of building a custom Jira Cloud app with ACE. When doing so off of our corporate network everything works fine. When trying to setup/install on our corporate network it fails during "npm install" due to ngrok not being allowed due to security policies restricting it.

Is there a way to get the "npm install" to complete without the ngrok dependency in ACE?

You can remove ngrok from the `package.json` file.  It might be in de dev dependencies section.
