RFC: Ionic Platform Style Adaptation Changes

Hey everyone,

We are making a few big changes to the way we style Ionic apps on certain platforms.

Previously, Ionic was very iOS 7 “inspired” (to put it nicely), and that has certainly annoyed some of our more Android loving friends. Initially, we expected developers to manually tweak styles based on the platforms they were targeting, but we’ve since realized a better approach would be to make some of those decisions in advance, and allow the developer to customize it how they see fit.

If you’re interested in what we are doing, including possible impacts this change will have on how your own apps look by default on different platforms for new versions of Ionic, please join the discussion on this PR: https://github.com/driftyco/ionic/pull/1508

Thanks!
