Ionic Framework By Example

Overview of this book

Change doesn’t have to be challenging. Sometimes it can be simple – sometimes it just makes sense. With Ionic, mobile development has never been so simple, so elegant and obvious. By helping developers to harness AngularJS and HTML5 for mobile development, it’s the perfect framework for anyone obsessed with performance, and anyone that understands just how important a great user experience really is. This book shows you how to get started with Ionic framework immediately. But it doesn’t just give you instructions and then expect you to follow them. Instead it demonstrates what Ionic is capable of through three practical projects you can follow and build yourself. From a basic to-do list app, a London tourist app, to a complete social media app, all three projects have been designed to help you learn Ionic at its very best. From setting up your project to developing on both the server side and front end, and best practices for testing and debugging your projects, you’ll quickly become a better mobile developer, delivering high performance mobile apps that look awesome. Ionic Framework by Example is for people who don’t want to learn now, build later – it’s for people who want to learn and build at the same time – so they can meet today’s mobile development challenges head on and deliver better products than anyone else.

Summary


In this chapter, we learned the various ways to test and deploy our app. We started off by using the ionic serve command to deploy our app to the browser using Chrome. We then had a look at how we can also serve our application using Ionic labs. We then went ahead to use the Ionic view application to see how we can run our app on an iOS and Android device with the Ionic view app installed in it. Lastly, we touched on how we can actually run our Ionic application on a real Android or iOS device.

In the next chapter, we are going to dive into some more complex Ionic controls, and we will get to use Angular's $http service to see how we can make Ajax calls and retrieve data within our Ionic application.
