Swift and Ionic framework - swift

I want to move my app written on Swift in Ionic framework. What is the best way to achieve this?
Is there a workaround to write swift in Visual studio? What tools I need to set this project up.
p.s I work on PC and prefer visual studio

basically you need to re-write the whole logic/code of your application on a Javascript based framework and use Ionic/AngularJS for the Frontend.

which libraries to use for programming a GUI in vscode

I want to start programming a new application in C# oder VB with
Visual Studio Code.
Is it possible to program a GUI for my app in VS-Code and which libraries to use?
Visual Studio Code does not provide UI designing by itself. I have not seen any suitable extension to convert UI design into code, for VS-Code. How ever I think this is a good discussion (How can I develop cross-platform GUI application using .Net Core) about your second question:
Is it possible to program a GUI for my app in VS-Code and which
libraries to use
The C# support in VS Code is optimized for cross-platform .NET Core development. And you can't build applications like Winforms, WPF or Silverlight on .Net Core. They're gone!

What makes nativescript better than ionic

im new to mobile development and i see ionic framework has very big community BUT
i know that ionic uses webview while nativescript generates native components
my question now what nativescript can do ionic cannot do?
in other words what is the powerful points in nativescript that does not exists in ionic
thanks in advance.
Ionic is hybrid, running inside webview which has problem with performance at particular things like even simpler animation, not fully accessible API of native part
Nativescript runs as native app, controlled by JS code but can be used even with native code or even as addon to native app and full access to API of native code

Using ionic in visual studio

I am currently developing a mobile app using ionic..but i was wondering of its possible to develop an ionic app using visual studio community 2015.I have attempted coding in visual studio using ionic in VS,but it seems like the js scripts used in regular web apps are not recognized by ionic.And i dont like Telerik and Kendo UI because the app behaves in a sticky manner.I am trying to develop a cross platform app that behaves and looks as native as possible..Please guide me on how to go about this?
Visual Studio is one of the best ways to developer hybrid mobile apps with Ionic. Frankly I prefer to use Visual Studio Code. It's a lightweight code editor that's fast and optimized for ASP.NET and Node.js development.

Or try to better explain your problem so we can help.
You can try WebStorm it is the best one for developing cross platform.
you can integrate it with any plugin. it is full of tools for javaScript technologies with built in terminal.

How can I use a javascript library like Angular.js on the Smartface

Is the Smartface provide external libraries in order to them on projects?
For example, if I want to use Angular.js in my Project, is it possible?
Smartface App Studio can use any JavaScript code or frameWork without DOM.
Also, there is an ongoing development about plugin support for community. You can also use Obj-C , JAVA , C++ libraries in your applicaiton.
You can also check the link below which uses UnderScore frameWork in Smartface App Studio;

Best framework to create mobile applications?

I'm looking for a Framework to create mobile applications, if possible writing all code in Java. The idea is create for all mobiles Android, iOS, Windows Phone etc.
I found: Sencha, Vaadin and others.
What's the best ?
if you need to build cross mobile application you can use phonegap http://phonegap.com/ it is better you can use javascript and HTML and CSS to build applications.
Xamarin is another great one. I think you're asking the wrong question though. There isn't really a BEST one, its more what fits into your style. Some might say phonegap is the best, but you can't use code behind in phonegap only HTML CSS and JavaScript. So you gotta find what works best with what you want to do.
Also, look up chrome web apps. You can now develop apps using chrome rendering engine and usual html css and other web based code types and package into apps for the different os app stores.
Everyone is talking about Ionic, I am using it and I love it. Here are some slides to introduce you.
I would use ionic framework, is based on apache cordova, and use AngularJS. If you dont know AngularJS you have other alternatives like goratchet made by bootstrap creators. The only 'problem' is that you'll have to use javascript, html and css, not Java.
I am using ionic framework as well. The best part is you do simple command like ionic build ios to have an ios version of your app, as well as ionic build android for android version.
AngularJS is actually easy to learn (as long as you have basic understanding of JS), the best resource would be egghead.io. I use Ruby on Rails as backend to render an API for my ionic app to consume, so i pretty much don't need to use NodeJS or other JS framework as backend. Also, there is a lot of support for ionic. You can always search Google for a codepen example if you need help.
