Learning Path: Ionic: Application Development with Ionic 2

Developing real-time apps is the need of the hour, and apps that deal with humongous amounts of user data and real-time information that needs to be updated frequently are in high demand. Currently, one of the most popular frameworks for this task is the Ionic Framework.

Application Development with Ionic 2 is Packt’s Video Learning Path, which is are a series of individual video products put together in a logical and stepwise manner such that each video builds on the skills learned in the video before it.

This course will get you started with Ionic and help you create Angular 2 components that interact with templates.

You will learn to bootstrap an application and enhance one cool feature at a time. Each feature will cover one of the essential components of an app: user experience, logic and data, and the user interface.

You’ll then work with Cordova to support native functionalities on both iOS and Android. Also, you’ll learn to use the default themes for each platform as well as customizing your own.

By the end of this Video Learning Path, we will have built an entire awesome iTunes Browser app along with learning how best to deploy your app to different platforms.
