Here we are at the end of the third course of this specialization.
I hope you had fun learning about Ionic and Cordova and how you
can develop hybrid mobile applications using the Ionic framework and Cardova.
As we move forward in the specialization,
the next course coming up also continues on the hybrid mobile theme.
Let's take stock of the situation at this moment and
then find our way forward from this course.
Taking a look at the Full Stack web development picture,
we are still within that angular ecosystem.
We develop our hybrid mobile applications in this course
using the Ionic framework which builds up on angular as its foundation.
We have also seen how they can package their Ionic application using
Cordova in order to deploy it to a mobile device.
To summarize, in this course we look at the Ionic framework in great detail.
We saw how the ionic framework builds upon angular and enables us to design
hybrid mobile applications that can easily adapt to
the various mobile platforms in terms of its look and feel.
Ionic does a lot of the work behind the scenes to make it possible for us to
design from a single code base and target multiple mobile platforms.
We also saw the use of Cordova, in particular,
how we can make use of the Cordova plugins that enable us to access
the native features of most mobile platforms.
And we saw how that Cordova plugins themselves are
wrapped in the Ionic native wrappers that provide us
with an observable or a promise based interface
that we can very easily leverage within our ionic application,
quote unquote, "In the angular way. "
Looking forward, in the next course,
we will be covering Native Script.
We'll look at how Native Script enables us also
to do a hybrid mobile application development.
We'll in particular concentrate on Native Script and its use of
angular as a way of developing Native Script applications.
And we will see how Native Script enables us to develop mobile applications
that can be compiled into Native code and deploy on the native device.
Unlike Ionic and Cordova which uses the Web View that is enclosed
in the various native platforms to enable us to develop hybrid mobile applications.
I hope to see you again in the next course to continue your journey through
this specialization looking at
Native Script as yet another way of developing mobile applications.
