There are no exceptions or warnings in the console? What version of Angular CLI are you using?
Have you tried 'ng serve -prod'? Have you tried something like 'cd dist; http-server -o' or 'cd dist; lite-server'? If you want to shrink your bundle sizes, you will want to run 'ng build -prod -aot' in order to enable tree shaking and other optimizations.
