I need to get the fastest solution for push notification and my preference tool for my case is Ionic. Being apricity os user then I try to test it with ‘edge’ resources 🙂

Install NodeJs Ionic

yaourt -S nodejs-ionic

Check its result :

npm -v

ionic -v

Well, I think I should wait for Ionic 2 or using something else now 😉
