I’m planning to learn how to use ionic, and firebase. I’m just not sure what should I learn beforehand. I already leaned html and JS, what else should I go for?

@Jacob Marley is right. Here's the official documentation for Ionic. You might take a look.

https://ionicframework.com/docs/
https://ionicframework.com/docs/developer-resources/what-is/#typescript
https://ionicframework.com/docs/developer-resources/
https://ionicframework.com/framework

I've been working with Ionic for about two years. Ionic is a great Framework for developing Hybrid apps. For getting started with Ionic you must be familiar with Angular4, SCSS and TypeScript (basically JavaScript). Then, you need to have Node.js running on your machine in order to run Everything.

It's very similar to web development. I Suggest you to get Started With Angular4 (Just make Tour of Heroes and I'm sure you will be ready to go) : https://angular.io/tutorial.

And finally you can Start watching Firebase tutorials to get Started!! Firebase is an awesome back-end service! It's very reliable I personally recomend you to use it (saves lots of time and headaches). You can get a general idea following Firebase's youtube channel : https://www.youtube.com/user/Firebase
I'm sure there you will find almost all that you need. You can also take a look at Firebase official docs https://firebase.google.com/docs/

I hope this helped you. And also i hope you to enjoy this wonderful tools in the wonderful world of developing. Have a nice day!!

I haven't used either before, but they appear to have really good websites with extensive documentation that you'll want to read, so I'd go straight to the horse's mouth on this one.

From a quick glance at the site, it appears you'll want to know TypeScript (similar to JS), NodeJS (it uses it), and maybe Angular JS (what it's built on top of.)

Hope that helps some. Good luck!
