Summary

By now, you may have perhaps noted the red thread running through all the components that we picked for our toolchain; they are all based on JavaScript. This gives us the ability to write all our logic from top to bottom in one single language rather than using different ones for different components (Objective-C or Java for the client, PHP for the server, SQL for the database, or some other unholy combination). As you will see throughout the remainder of the book, this will make it much easier for us to write concise, focused, and comprehensible code.

Once you go through all the preceding steps, I can safely assume that you have the necessary toolkit and you are ready to tackle the upcoming chapters, where we will have an opportunity to create our very first Ionic app and make it work on both Android and iOS devices.

Once you finish setting up your workspace, I recommend that you spend some time reading the Apache Cordova documentation, especially the documentation related to the different platform dependencies.

In the next chapter, we will perform further preparations and configure persistence with MongoDB as part of our preparations for our very own backend for our Ionic app.
