Ionic Android App - Learn by Doing

Hi reader, I am currently working on an Android app and I want to go the Ionic approach. Usually I use projects like these as a learning process for me and others. So I will be blogging my progress from the setting up the Ionic Development environment to the finish of the app. This blog will also include all the dilemmas I will get to and also share how I was feeling at any point time. So you get an in-depth exposure through my eyes during the development of this app.

Before you continue you can do cursory read here about ionic apps. (the steps provided on setting up Ionic on that page is pretty confusing and not detailed enough though)

All there's this youtube video linked below that I recommend for anybody starting Ionic for the very first time on a windows PC.
