This is a sample app built by the core team of Ionic. It's a means of "eating our own dogfood" by building a practical app in Ionic. It was built using the Ionic Tabs Starter.
This app makes no guarantees for stability. In fact, as it's a place we often test pre-release builds of Ionic, it's often broken as we iron out new features for Ionic.
The app is a Hacker News reader. It allows you to browse, search, share, read, and view the comments of Hacker News posts. It communicates with the Firebase Hacker News API, and the Algolia Hacker News Search API.
** Note**: The number of comments in the chat bubble is the number of top level comments
