Chapter 4. Ionic navigation and core components
This chapter covers
- Managing the user state and navigation for the app
- Displaying icons, lists, and cards to cleanly organize content
- Loading data from external sources and showing a loading screen
- Using infinite scrolling to continuously load data
- Using a slideshow component as an app intro
In this chapter I’ll show you how to create a fully functional mobile app for a fictitious resort in Hawaii. The core feature of this app is managing user app navigation. I’ll also introduce you to some of the Ionic components throughout this chapter, such as loaders, content containers, and a slideshow.
This chapter is laid out to provide a walk-through of the process to build the complete app. The complete example is available on GitHub if you’d like to take a look at the whole app first. You can find it at https://github.com/ionic-in-action/chapter4. You can also preview the app at http://ionic-in-action-chapter4.herokuapp.com.
