I’m really struggling with understanding how the routing works ☹ I’m trying to learn ionic framework, and I have been reading routing side of things and this is were I am getting a little stuck. I had my app working, but now I want to add more views. So, I have started by putting my home view in a state called ‘home’ (sorry if i am not using the correct terminology). Ok here is my html: ``` Venues

``` and a snippet of my js is ``` var example=angular.module('ionic.example', ['ionic']) .config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) { $stateProvider .state('home', { url: '/home', templateUrl: 'templates/home.html', controller: 'MyCtrl' }) ; $urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/home'); }); ``` Any advice is welcome 😄 ---

First of all, you have a typo where you add the controller to your html (nng-controller) which should be: ``` ``` Additional, where is the implementation of your controller? The file which contains ‘MyCtrl’. BTW: You might need to load this \*.js file also below cordova, app.js and so on! Try to open the console in your browser when you test your app inside a browser! ---

Thanks, dam typos! I implemented the controller in the app.js file. I think ive got it working “kind of” now. Takes a bit to get your head around ---
