Great question, it is current to the beta 13 version right now, but will be updated with any details for 1.0. I’ve talked with the Ionic team a few times, and version 1.0 will represent a stable API that will not introduce breaking changes, and this is what the book will reflect.
The book’s goal is not to replace the documentation where you will always be able to look up every detail, but intended to provide training how to use Ionic from installing it through to publishing to an app store.
The code is available for the current Chapters 4-5 on the book page under Resources. I’m working to get all of the code onto GitHub for the future versions of the book. All code will be there, eventually!
This ia a great book. I saw it on Kindle for about $2 so grabbed it. It is clearly still in ‘beta’ stage as there are placeholders and incomplete examples, but overall I thought it was really well written and gave me the confidence to jump into Ionic development and start my own ‘30 day project’…
The book is over half done, and the MEAP edition (the early release) was updated recently. I hope you’ve had a chance to take a look and I’d be happy to get any feedback!
Hello, Ionic 2 is still a bit far off, but I have been taking a closer look at it with the Ionic team. However, Angular 2 is also still a ways away, so there is a lot in flux and very little concrete to start updating the book. I intend to update it when the dust settles and everything is closer to stable.
Just bought the ebook after reading the first free chapter.
Since you mentioned in one of the replies above that the book is current till bet13,I just wanted to confirm that the code sample will work seamlessly with Ionic 1.0.0 “uranium-unicorn” (2015-05-12) release, as the 1.0.0 is more of a stable API release and no major changes(framework related or api syntax related etc) have been made since beta 13.
I may be asking a silly thing again but pardon my naiveness as i am new to Ionic
The book is now working with v1, not the betas. The 1.x branch may continue to get some updates and features as necessary, but everything in the book should remain stable and available to use.
It does include an example how to use the camera, though it only shows using a still image. It covers how to use Cordova and ngCordova to access all kinds of hardware capabilities!
I really appreciate your thinking that how you describe the matter quite easily,But few Things I did not understsnad thats why i decide to go Cisco Tech Support for help, they told me how to solve this easily.
