What is Ionic Framework ?

Ionic is an HTML5 mobile app development framework targeted at building hybrid mobile apps. Hybrid apps are essentially small websites running in a browser shell in an app that have access to the native platform layer. Hybrid apps have many benefits over pure native apps, specifically in terms of platform support, speed of development, and access to 3rd party code.
Think of Ionic as the front-end UI framework that handles all of the look and feel and UI interactions your app needs in order to be compelling. Kind of like “Bootstrap for Native” but with support for a broad range of common native mobile components, slick animations, and beautiful design. Source

Some of the key steps that are used in this tutorial

Below I discuss important coding steps that are must required in this video tutorial

STEP 1:

Now we have learn about how to develop apps using ionic and also
how to deploy them on platform. Now we open the index.htmlfile
In the visual studio code and then at the bottom there is a body
tag in which there is <ion-pain> which contains <ion-header> and <ion-content> tags, ion-content is basically a container which helps you to organize your content.It allows you to encapsulate your data

STEP 2:

Now inside the <ion-pain> tag we are going to change the title of our header as well as the class of our header. To change the color of our header classes provide different types of color combinations for our headers
So we change the title to First App and change the class to bar-positivewhich turns the color of our header to nice blue color.

STEP 3:

We can use <div> container here as well in place of <ion-header-bar>So it will be easier for us to add more functionality easily

STEP 4:

Now we can also use <div>tag to define footer at the end of the code by using bar bar-footer bar-calm tag which defines a cool footer with a blue color at the bottom of our app showing in the emulator and named as This is the footer

So our changes in the header and footer classes will look like this
