Summary
Google Developer Expert (GDE) & Ionic Developer Relations Code Crafter MIke Hartington (@mhartington) joins the panel to discuss Ionic and the future of the project with AngularJS & Cordova. Ionic is “The beautiful open source front-end SDK for developing hybrid mobile apps using web technologies.”
Once upon a time embedding web views in native apps was considered a bad practice in development by many. Now that the hybrid technologies have advanced much further than imagined, is there still a ‘war’ between the hybrid & native approaches? Have we reached a point where it doesn’t really matter which you choose?
Simple enough to wrap your head around...right? Mike talks about the different types of applications you would create for mobile experiences and why you would choose these approaches in your applications. He further goes on to talk more in detail about the framework and how it is being used today.

Free eBook: Data-Informed Product Designhttp://www.oreilly.com/pub/cpc/1220 Designers must understand user needs to create any product. But what type of data should you look at? In her new book, Data-Informed Product Design, Pamela Pavliscak outlines a way to use data of all kinds to understand the relationship between people and technology. Generally speaking, big data is quantitative; it gives you the what, where, and when, while “thick data” provides the qualitative perspective—the how and the why.
Up until now, there hasn't been much information on how to combine quantitative big data with qualitative thick data. That's where this report can help. If you're involved in any aspect of product design, this is indispensable reading. It's useful, and we're pleased to offer it to you, for free! Get the free ebook now.
