Use ionic with jQuery?

@mhartington I have a doubt regarding using jQuery along with angular. I have side menu which takes care of the UI routing using Angular and the remaining things like event binding/animating/dom manipulation I would like to go for jQuery.

<script src="lib/jquery-1.11.1.js"></script>
<script src="lib/ionic/js/ionic.bundle.js"></script>
<script src="js/app.js"></script>
<script src="js/controller"></script>
  1. After loading these scripts, shall I write my own jQuery code?
  2. Do I need to solve device ready event or it done within Ionic?

Please share your suggestion.

Thanks
