**Course Title:** Building Cross-Platform Mobile Applications with Ionic **Section Title:** Working with Ionic Components **Topic:** Design a multi-page application using various Ionic components, forms, and navigation.(Lab topic) **Objective:** In this lab, you will learn how to create a multi-page mobile application using various Ionic components, forms, and navigation. By the end of this topic, you will have a solid understanding of how to design and implement a mobile application that meets modern standards. **Introduction:** In the previous topics, we explored various Ionic components, forms, and navigation techniques. Now, it's time to bring everything together and build a complete multi-page application. In this lab, we will create a simple mobile application that allows users to navigate between pages, fill out forms, and interact with various Ionic components. **Designing the Application:** Before we start coding, let's take a moment to design our application. We will create a simple mobile application that meets the following requirements: * A home page with a navigation menu * A page for user registration * A page for user login * A dashboard page for logged-in users * A form for users to submit feedback **Ionic Components Used:** To build our application, we will use the following Ionic components: * `ion-tabs` for navigation * `ion-tabs-router` for routing between pages * `ion-card` for displaying user information * `ion-input` for creating form fields * `ion-button` for creating buttons * `ion-list` for creating lists **Step 1: Create a New Ionic Project** Create a new Ionic project using the Ionic CLI: ```bash ionic start multi-page-app tabs ``` This will create a new Ionic project with a tab-based navigation. **Step 2: Create the Home Page** Create a new page for the home page: ```bash ionic generate page home ``` This will create a new page with the necessary HTML, CSS, and TypeScript files. **Step 3: Create the Registration Page** Create a new page for the registration page: ```bash ionic generate page register ``` This will create a new page with the necessary HTML, CSS, and TypeScript files. **Step 4: Create the Login Page** Create a new page for the login page: ```bash ionic generate page login ``` This will create a new page with the necessary HTML, CSS, and TypeScript files. **Step 5: Create the Dashboard Page** Create a new page for the dashboard page: ```bash ionic generate page dashboard ``` This will create a new page with the necessary HTML, CSS, and TypeScript files. **Step 6: Create the Feedback Page** Create a new page for the feedback page: ```bash ionic generate page feedback ``` This will create a new page with the necessary HTML, CSS, and TypeScript files. **Implementing Navigation** To implement navigation between pages, we will use the `ion-tabs-router` component. Update the `tab1.page.html` file to include the following code: ```html <ion-tabs> <ion-tab tab="home" label="Home" icon="home-circle"> <ion-router-outlet></ion-router-outlet> </ion-tab> <ion-tab tab="register" label="Register" icon="person-add"> <ion-router-outlet></ion-router-outlet> </ion-tab> <ion-tab tab="login" label="Login" icon="lock-open"> <ion-router-outlet></ion-router-outlet> </ion-tab> <ion-tab tab="dashboard" label="Dashboard" icon="clipboard-outline"> <ion-router-outlet></ion-router-outlet> </ion-tab> </ion-tabs> ``` **Implementing Forms** To implement forms, we will use the `ion-input` component. Update the `register.page.html` file to include the following code: ```html <form [formGroup]="registerForm"> <ion-list> <ion-item> <ion-label>First Name:</ion-label> <ion-input formControlName="firstName"></ion-input> </ion-item> <ion-item> <ion-label>Last Name:</ion-label> <ion-input formControlName="lastName"></ion-input> </ion-item> <ion-item> <ion-label>Email Address:</ion-label> <ion-input type="email" formControlName="email"></ion-input> </ion-item> </ion-list> <ion-button type="submit" color="success">Register</ion-button> </form> ``` **Implementing Feedback Form** To implement the feedback form, we will use the `ion-input` component. Update the `feedback.page.html` file to include the following code: ```html <form [formGroup]="feedbackForm"> <ion-list> <ion-item> <ion-label>Feedback:</ion-label> <ion-textarea formControlName="feedback"></ion-textarea> </ion-item> </ion-list> <ion-button type="submit" color="success">Submit</ion-button> </form> ``` **Conclusion:** In this lab, we designed and implemented a multi-page mobile application using various Ionic components, forms, and navigation. We used the `ion-tabs` component for navigation, the `ion-input` component for creating forms, and the `ion-button` component for creating buttons. **What's Next:** In the next topic, we will explore state management concepts in mobile applications. **Do you have any questions or need help with this topic?
