Hey Product Hunters! We’re excited to share with you the next big thing from Ionic - our mobile cloud platform. Here at Ionic, we believe that making mobile apps should be easy. We’re obsessed with empowering web developers to build incredible mobile experiences with the skills they already have. That’s why we’re launching the Ionic Platform (beta), a way for developers to build, deploy, and scale Ionic and Cordova apps. Developing apps with Ionic will now cover the entire mobile lifecycle, from start to growth. We’re excited to get your feedback, and answer any questions about what we’re building. We move fast in our mission to make building apps simple and fun again, so any ideas, thoughts and things we haven’t thought about are highly appreciated! If you’d like to get the full scoop on the release, check out the post on our blog: http://blog.ionic.io/announcing-... Thanks for reading, and happy hunting, Max

@maxlynch We've got a contractor at my company who recently 're-'introduced us to Ionic and it looks superb now. We're considering including it as part of our skill stack for all junior/mid weight devs company wide as we're heavy on Angular and JS.

@maxlynch are there any good intros/tuturioals to get up to speed with ionic AND the new cloud platform yet?
Joshua Pinter
Man, I would love to have a platform like this for React Native.
Andrei Oprisan
@joshuapinter This isn't comparable to React Native, as Iconic is still only on the web. This is more akin to http://reapp.io, with a Cordova wrapper for both.
Joshua Pinter
@andreioprisan Yup, thanks Andrei. Just saying it would be nice to have a platform of tools like this around React Native development, especially live deploying JS to your user's devices. Right now it's all pretty makeshift and piecemeal.

@joshuapinter @andreioprisan I know it's not an entire platform of tools similar to Ionic Platform, but at ReactConf there was a great talk on live deploying React Native apps using Microsoft CodePush - https://github.com/Microsoft/cod...
Joshua Pinter
@donaldhruska @andreioprisan Awesome. Thanks. I saw this listed but never watched the video. Surprised to see Microsoft responsible for it. ;)
Joshua Pinter
@donaldhruska @andreioprisan Also check out https://apphub.io/ as a platform for pushing code live. Specific for React Native, Open Sourced and cheap (if you use their server).

I have used Titanium Appcelerator for years, despite the way in which they operate is different (Titanium compiles to native code) Ionic is really the best and most well documented cross-platform framework I ever played with

@saoron Nice :D and for sure, we really want to have a simple service for the most common app needs, whatever those may be. As the industry expands and new services get added, we hope to have a way to give Ionic users a similar service (or partner with that provider). Some planned services: crash/error logging, expanded analytics, remote content editing, surveys/feedback. Though we want to harden what we do have before adding a bunch more, but we will likely add those new services to existing plans, so the value of the platform will continue to increase.

I use Ionic for some projects, its awesome! Can't believe it wasn't on PH. I should have submit it -_-

On your website under the paragraph "Push notifications" it says "Donnect". Typo?

I have been a HUGE (obsessed) Ionic enthusiast for months now. Being a hard-core front-end developer, I was having a hard time understanding and getting stuff done with Phonegap, cordova, xamarin........and then came Ionic. Just love the simplicity and efficiency. Already working on our BIG app idea and thanks a bunch to the amazing folks at Ionic who keep building really awesome stuff...

I love Ionic and I can't wait to see all the other things they have planned.

@maxlynch With the successful rise of React Native, how long do you think will Ionic be able to hold up before the former becomes a default choice for cross-platform app development?

What makes a technology great? Offering unlimited possibilities to developers, but most importantly, what makes a technology great is the community around it. Ionic mobile cloud platform will create thousands of opportunities for developers from this community, which I am very happy to be a part of! At IonicThemes, we strive to provide awesome tools and opportunities for developers to create value. We are building great themes and templates to help you save time and improve your apps’ quality. Publishing a killer app is becoming easier by the day when combining the new Ionic Mobile Cloud Platform and IonicThemes’ great designs. Thanks to @maxlynch and all your team for your great work! And please check out http://ionicthemes.com – we would love to get your feedback!

Max, This is great. I was just discussing with my developers the other day benefits and drawbacks of developing in hybrid vs. native. When we have questions what is the best way to get in touch?
