i tried out loopback but it was a horrible to create a real generic rest api.

So i simply use express js with my own API-extension ^^.

But you do not need a tutorial for loopback with ionic. you need a tutorial how you create a nodejs api with loopback. In ionic you are sending only requests to your api-endpoints… nothing special.

But if you had tried to google “loopback ionic” … the first results are little tutorials…

But first try to learn nodejs and then decide if you need such a big framework like loopback.
