Preface

Mobile application development has been a hot topic for quite a while now. There are multiple platforms and devices with different screen sizes and form factors out there to accommodate. It makes mobile app development very difficult. Luckily, Ionic is one such tool that helps us mitigate this very problem by allowing us to write code once for all platforms and devices.

In this book, readers will learn how to create mobile applications using Ionic. We will start with very basic things, such as setting up the development environment, using Navigation in apps, working with backend via REST API, Animations, Authenticating Users, Receiving push notifications, localizing an app, generating documentation, and publishing the app, to name a few. Readers will also learn things about Angular and Ionic CLI. I hope that this book will help novice developers as well as advanced developers, because the content is a mixture of easy and advance ionic stuff.
