Description
I had my hands on Ionic CLI today, and I usually build my apps with Angular CLI. I heard Ionic CLI integrates well with the Angular CLI (or to be more accurate, using angular CLI) so I thought why not give it a try.
Usually, when I start an app, I structure it like so (in a nutshell):
- App folder contains all of the modules
- Each module (that is not a Core/Shared Module) has pages and dummy components.
I read that there's an option to generate a page, which is simply a component, with a Page suffix instead of Component suffix, and it generates along the way a module for the page, and lastly, it links the generated module to the app routing.
IMO (and people are free to argue about it), the generate page does much more than just creating a new page, and that limits me to build my app with my own structure. I might have 1 module with multiple pages (e.g AuthModule with login, register, and a profile page).
So my alternative is to use the traditional way by creating a new component and not a page. But then, to keep the style guide of Ionic, I would like to have a Page suffix and not a Component suffix. Plus, I would like to link the generated component (which would be a page) to the relative module (e.g AuthModule) and not the AppModule, since I've already linked my AuthModule to AppModule.
