Now that we are done with the software setup, we will scaffold a few Ionic apps.
Ionic has three main/go-to templates, using which we can quickly start developing apps:
- Blank: This is a blank Ionic project with one page
- Tabs: This is a sample app that is built using Ionic tabs
- Side menu: This is a sample app that is built to consume side menu driven navigation
To understand the basics of scaffolding, we will start with the blank template.
To keep our learning process clean, we will create a folder structure to work with Ionic projects. Create a folder named chapter2.
Next, open a new command prompt/terminal and change the directory (cd) to the chapter2 folder. Now run the following command:
ionic start -a "Example 1" -i app.example.one example1 blank --v2
The preceding command has the following features:
- -a "Example 1": This is the human-readable name of the app.
- -i app.example...
