 The difference between `ionViewWillEnter` and `ionViewDidEnter` is when they fire. The former fires right after `ngOnInit` but before the page transition begins, and the latter directly after the transition ends.
 
 For `ionViewWillLeave` and `ionViewDidLeave`, `ionViewWillLeave` gets called directly before the transition away from the current page begins, and `ionViewDidLeave` does not get called until after the new page gets successfully transitioned into (after the new pages `ionViewDidEnter` fires).
