Introduction

Tinder needs no introduction. This is my favorite theme of all time. Recently I noticed that Tinder has been probably running A/B testing for their new tabbed view UI. I just love it. I create an Ionic 4 theme out of it!

I'm an UI/UX lover. I see nice UI, I clone. That's all!

I always take it serious to keep the code quality high, with clean and self-explained code.

What's in the package

• Ionic Project source code: based on the folder structure generated with Ionic CLI
• No Backend code: this is just the UI, not a fully functional app. Data is mostly static dummy unless mentioned, e.g GIF search uses the real Giphy API

Preview

Happy prototyping!

Notes

1.Modify the default theme colors to match Tinder's colors in src/sass/variables.override.scss

:root {
  /** primary **/
  --ion-color-primary: #fd5068;
  --ion-color-primary-rgb: 253,80,104;
  --ion-color-primary-contrast: #ffffff;
  --ion-color-primary-contrast-rgb: 0,0,0;
  --ion-color-primary-shade: #df465c;
  --ion-color-primary-tint: #fd6277;
  ...

2.I personally like the look on iOS so I forced the theme to iOS mode. You can config that to suit your need

# in src/app/app.module.ts
    IonicModule.forRoot({
      mode: 'ios',
      backButtonText: '',
    }),
    ...

3.Dependencies

npm install --save angular2-swing lodash

4.Fix angular-2-swing

# polyfills.ts
/***************************************************************************************************
 * APPLICATION IMPORTS
 */
 (window as any).global = window;

Build with capacitor

First of all, make sure that you can Run Locally (see the instruction above).

# build web asset (to folder www)
$ ionic build

# add platform (ios or android)
$ ionic capacitor add ios

# prepare app icons and splash images
$ npm run resources

# copy web assets into the native project
$ ionic capacitor copy ios

# open Xcode, then build the native app from there
$ ionic capacitor open ios

# OR run in live-reload mode
$ ionic capacitor run ios -l --external
