In this chapter, we brought together a number of skills that we managed to develop over the past few chapters. It's important to note that we managed to connect an API that we created from scratch and a cross-platform application that we implemented via the Ionic framework. As regards to e-commerce, there are a number of open source solutions such as Traider.io and ReactionCommerce. These solutions have expanded functionalities and are in the process of improving through community contributions, especially with regards to the REST API services. In addition to this, they make use of MongoDB and Node.js.

The Ionic framework is an ever-growing platform in all aspects. As we mentioned earlier in this book, the Ionic framework team released a number of updates with a number of new features. We are excited about this, and we believe that it's priceless to invest energy and time to further understand this platform.
