Ionic and Swift view demo iOS project published
— iOS — 1 min read
As a quickie demo, I've added this project to by GitHub -- Ionic and Swift Hybrid Demo iOS Xcode Project
I've published this becuase it is a concise demo of the following scenario:
- You have an iOS app written in Swift
- You want to specify one view in the otherwise vanilla Swift + Xcode storyboard app to be controlled by an Ionic TypeScript + Angular app
- You want to be able to freely navigate between the swift view(s) and the Ionic v4-based view (becuse of couse you'd want navigation to work within the app and appear seamless)
I couldn't find any existing guides covering this particular scenario but its a pretty compelling use-case for teams wanting to create mobile apps that leverage a hybrid webview in an existing native codebase.
It uses Ionic Capacitor to leverage some UINavigation
native API hooks to be called within the Ionic Angular App
