Ionic makes it incredibly easy to build beautiful and interactive mobile apps using HTML5 and AngularJS. Ionic 2 represents that collective learning about how to make the web do more on mobiles. Ionic 2 not only makes app development easier and faster, but also makes it more fun.

This hands-on guide will help you understand the Ionic framework and how you can leverage it to create amazing real-time applications with exciting interactive features. We begin by covering the essential features of Angular 2 and then dive straight into how Ionic fits in today's world, providing you with a good understanding of the mobile hybrid architecture along the way.

Further on, you will learn how to work with Ionic components, allowing you to build layouts using Ionic framework, be it single page or multi-page. We take a look at theming Ionic apps using the built-in SCSS setup, work with Ionic API components, and create a “Thought Journal” app that needs session and data to be managed on the client side. After that, we explore Cordova and ngCordova and you will learn how to integrate device-specific features through a food allergy notification app. Lastly, you will learn to test the apps that you have built so far, migrate existing Ionic 1 apps to Ionic 2, and deploy them to the App Store.

By the end of this book, you will be able to develop hybrid mobile applications from start to finish.
