15 Best Ionic Application Models

With Ionic, building a robust, cross-platform mobile app is as easy as building a website. If you are a seasoned web developer who wants to become an Android or iOS app developer overnight, all you need to do is install and start using Ionic. I assure you that you will take the water like a fish.

However, building a feature-rich ionic app with a sleek user interface can be difficult, especially if it needs to be native to multiple platforms. Fortunately, by using an ionic model, you can save a lot of time and effort.

In this article, I'm going to list 15 Outstanding Ionic Models You Should Consider This Year.

Ionic Mobile App Builder

Developed by CodeGenerator, Ionic Mobile App Builder, or IMA Builder, is an award-winning template that lets you build static and dynamic ionic applications without writing code. It offers a very intuitive web interface that you can use to define every aspect of your application. Specifically, it just lets you fill out a few forms in your browser to create and configure all of your app's user interface components, including navigation drawers, menus, popovers, tables, and pages.

However, the best thing about this template is that the apps you build with it will interact with various data sources, such as WordPress, WooCommerce, and any other content management system with a JSON API.

IonWordpress

IonWordpress, developed by elite author IonicThemes, is the template to use if you want to convert your WordPress blog into a stunning Android or iOS app. It is one of the most popular themes on CodeCanyon, and for a good reason: it has more features than you might imagine, excellent documentation, and easy-to-read code.

Along with WordPress-related features, this template also offers push notifications, mobile ads through Google AdMob and Apple iAd, as well as a built-in browser.

It's also worth mentioning that this model is very well documented, and updates and bug fixes are made regularly.

Ionic catalog

The Ionic catalog, developed by appseed, is a generic business-oriented model. If you are running a business and building an app that can showcase your products, this template may be just what you need. It also allows you to view helpful information such as your store's hours of operation and your contact options. If you are already using WooCommerce, this template can be configured to read data.

The architecture of the Ionic catalog is highly modular. Moreover, since it was built with a popular Yeoman generator for the Ionic framework, you can be sure that it follows several best practices.
