Building a Mobile App with AngularJS and Ionic

This is the repository for my course, Building a Mobile App with AngularJS and Ionic. The full course is available at lynda.com.

Course Description

Creating hybrid mobile applications is a great way to leverage your knowledge of web languages like HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript. Modern frameworks such as AngularJS and Ionic make it easier with pre-built templates and components. In this course, staff author Ray Villalobos shows how to install the Ionic framework and set up a development environment suitable for building web-based apps. He reviews the core Ionic components: prebuilt, easy-to-use features such as buttons, lists, tabs, and forms. Then Ray shows how to combine these components with Angular.js models, views, and controllers to build a single page app with sliders, pull-to-refresh functionality, and search. The training culminates in building a multi-page app, which you'll learn how to customize with CSS.

Topics include:

• Installing the development environment on Mac or PC
• Understanding the Ionic templates and CSS components
• Adding IonicIcons to a layout
• Adding tabs, cards, and lists
• Using form elements
• Building a single view app
• Implementing Pull to Refresh
• Creating a multi-tab app
• Styling the applications
• Deploying applications
