FATAL ERROR: CALL_AND_RETRY_LAST Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory

I think setting `--max_old_space_size` should help you see also this thread https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/5618 — yurzui, Jul 26 '17 at 09:39

try to modify the files and replace their contents with the following: (in the folder : node_modules\bin)

Modify ng.cmd:

@IF EXIST "%~dp0\node.exe" (
  "%~dp0\node.exe" --max_old_space_size=5048 "%~dp0\..\angular-cli\bin\ng" %*
) ELSE (
  @SETLOCAL
  @SET PATHEXT=%PATHEXT:;.JS;=;%
  node --max_old_space_size=5048 "%~dp0\..\angular-cli\bin\ng" %*
)

Modify ngc.cmd :

@IF EXIST "%~dp0\node.exe" (
  "%~dp0\node.exe" --max_old_space_size=5048 "%~dp0\..\@angular\compiler-cli\src\main.js" %*
) ELSE (
  @SETLOCAL
  @SET PATHEXT=%PATHEXT:;.JS;=;%
  node --max_old_space_size=5048 "%~dp0\..\@angular\compiler-cli\src\main.js" %*
)

for angular 7, I increased the maximum memory allocated for budgets in angular.json file.

"budgets": [
                {
                  "type": "initial",
                  "maximumWarning": "2mb",
                  "maximumError": "11mb"
                }
]

then ran the following command: node --max_old_space_size=10500 'node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng' build --prod

in your case you should try to run this: node --max_old_space_size=10500 'node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng' serve --aot

This issue comes if the angular app will become bigger in size to compile. Please increase your node ram memory that will solve the issue. (Default node ram memory is 1600mb, increase it to around 3200)
