Below is a sample of the emails you can expect to receive when signed up to Ionicframework.
Hi Kenneth,
Even though your app is built with web tech, Ionic makes it easy to access any native device features - like camera, geolocation, filesystem, and more - using a curated library of open source and premium native plugins.
Ionic Native provides Ionic developers with a consistent API for unlocking native functionality in your app, complete with TypeScript wrappers with support for Promises and Observables. If you’ve already used TypeScript, you’ll right at home.
Ready to try it out? Let’s integrate the Camera into our Photo Gallery app. Or, take a look at all the powerful native features that Ionic Native has to offer.

Hi Kenneth,
The great thing about Ionic is that with one codebase, you can build for any platform using familiar web tools and languages.
Follow along as we create a working Photo Gallery to see how it works. Here’s the before and after:
It’s easy to get started. Note that all code referenced in this guide can be found on GitHub.
Download/install these right away to ensure an optimal Ionic development experience:
Run the following in the command line (you may need to prepend “sudo” on a Mac):
$ npm install -g ionic cordova
Next, create an Ionic v4 app using our “Tabs” app template:
$ ionic start photo-gallery tabs --type=angular
This starter project comes complete with three pre-built pages and best practices for Ionic development. With common building blocks already in place, we can add more features easily!
“Install the free Ionic Appflow SDK and connect your app?”
Type “y” and press Enter. Ionic Appflow is a powerful set of services and features built on top of the flagship Ionic Framework. This includes updating your app instantly (skipping the app store review process!), packaging apps in the cloud, and error monitoring.
Log into your Ionic Account
Sign in now to easily access awesome features like building native apps in the cloud and Live Deploys later in this tutorial.
What would you like to do?
Choose “Create a new app on Ionic Appflow.”
Which git host would you like to use?
Choose “Ionic Appflow.”
“How would you like to connect to Ionic Appflow?”
Next, change into the app folder, then push your code to Ionic Appflow:
$ cd photo-gallery
$ git push ionic master
That’s it! Now for the fun part - let’s see it in action.
Run this command next:
ionic serve
And voilà! Your Ionic app is now running in a web browser. Most of your app can be built right in the browser, greatly increasing development speed.
There are three tabs. Click on the Tab2 tab. It’s a blank canvas, aka the perfect spot to add camera functionality. Let’s begin to transform this page into a Photo Gallery. Ionic features LiveReload, so when you make changes and save them, the app is updated immediately!
Open the photo-gallery app folder in your favorite code editor of choice, then navigate to /src/app/tab2/tab2.page.html. We see:
<ion-header> <ion-toolbar> <ion-title>Tab Two</ion-title> </ion-toolbar> </ion-header> <ion-content padding></ion-content>
ion-header represents the top navigation and toolbar, with "Tab 2" as the title. We put our app code into ion-content. In this case, it’s where we’ll add a button that opens the device’s camera and shows the image captured by the camera. But first, let’s start with something obvious: renaming the Tab Two page:
<ion-title>Photo Gallery</ion-title>
Next, open src/app/tabs/tabs.page.html. Change the label to “Gallery” and the icon name to “images”:
<ion-tab-button tab="tab2"> <ion-icon name="images"></ion-icon>
<ion-label>Gallery</ion-label> </ion-tab-button>
Now, back up your changes to Ionic Appflow:
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "converting tab2 page to photo gallery"
$ git push ionic master
That’s just the start of all the cool things we can do with Ionic. Up next, we’ll deploy the app to iOS and Android, then continue building the photo gallery.

Hi Kenneth,
Matt from the Ionic team here, and I know what you’re thinking. “Studio looks like a drag-and-drop tool for designers. I need more power and customizability. I’m a developer!”
Well, I’ve got good news!
Ionic Studio was built specifically with developers in mind. And with that, we knew we had to create something that developers like you would love. ??
So we started making Studio with one thing in mind: we MUST use your codebase as the source of truth. ???? Then we can build awesome features like drag-and-drop on top of that.
What does that mean?
It means you have unlimited power to customize anything and everything in your app, and Studio is still going to work (event on existing Ionic Angular 4 projects)!
Want to use Drag-and-Drop to build out a prototype, then use Code Mode to customize everything to your heart's content, with absolutely no limits? You can do that. ??
Want to install a custom native plugin and add it to a TypeScript service? You can do that. ????
Want to abandon Drag-and-Drop entirely and just use Compose Mode as a way to quickly hop in and out of editing your components and pages? You can do that. ????
Ionic Studio gives you complete control, and never holds you back. Instead, it focuses on making your development experience as easy as possible.
Want to try it out? ????
Hop on an Ionic Studio Plan
Until next time, Matt from the Ionic Team
P.S. If you want to get totally pumped and ready to conquer your day building apps at lightning fast speeds with Ionic Studio, I highly recommend watching Georgia Tech’s Epic Freshman Welcome Speech. Get ready to build something amazing!

Hi Kenneth,
I forgot to mention something in my last email.
One reason we love Studio is that it helps teams work better together.
In fact, Studio has already been adopted by hundreds of professional development teams - from startups and consulting firms to large enterprises like Cisco, State of Florida, and Conagra.
What do they get out of it?
Many enterprise teams are under pressure to address a large and growing backlog of apps required by the business. It’s not uncommon to have as many as 30-60 mobile projects waiting for development.
Studio helps meet the demand for apps by speeding up development. ??
Studio’s intuitive coding and visual design environments accelerate the app creation process, helping them tackle their app backlog without compromising on quality.
Another way that it helps is by improving collaboration. ????
With live preview and Design Mode, they can now sit down with clients and stakeholders and design the user experience together, in real time, as they build the app. This improves collaboration and allows for more rapid iteration of design and user experience concepts.
And when combined with Appflow, our mobile DevOps solution, Studio helps them address accelerate every phase of lifecycle - from initial concept creation to automated app builds and real time updates once the app is in a user’s hands.
Thinking about bringing Studio into your team? Sign in to check out one of our Organization licenses today. ????

Hi Kenneth,
Matt from the Ionic team here! I know you're probably sick of getting emails from me, but I wouldn't be pushing Studio this hard if I didn't truly believe in it.
In fact, I’m personally using Studio 20+ hours a week to build out my own app that over 100,000 people use every month. ????
I tried going back to VS Code after using Studio for a few weeks, and it just wasn’t the same. VS Code doesn’t understand how Ionic apps work, it doesn’t show you every customization for every component at your fingertips. It just doesn’t help you go faster.
Ionic Studio was built specifically to make Ionic app development easier than ever, so you can get to your 100,000+ users as soon as possible.
Are you ready for lightning fast app creation? ??

Hi Kenneth,
Matt from the Ionic team here, and I’ve got just one question for you...
No more scouring through pages of docs to figure out exactly how to customize a component, install a native plugin, or run your app on a device.
Ionic Studio helps solve all of these problems and more because it’s an editor that understands Ionic.
With the unique combination of a powerful full-blown code editor + visual mode complete with drag & drop, using Ionic Studio means you’re focusing more on what your app does, not how your app works. ????
Let’s take Compose Mode for instance. It understands all of your pages & components and displays them all without having to dig through code. You can even add new pages and components right from Studio:
After you open a page or component, you can interact with that page’s Template, Styles, JavaScript or Module all from one place.
You can use drag-and-drop in Code mode or the Canvas, and it even shows you every possible property for every Ionic component without having to read documentation!
You can even Serve, Debug with Chrome Dev Tools, Emulate, or Run your app right on a device all without leaving Ionic Studio. ????
And the best part? Ionic Studio can create new applications with Ionic 4 and Angular, or even open existing ones. You’re working off of a REAL code based Ionic project, not a design-based abstraction! ????
Ready to check it out? ????
