1. Running the App (Web Browser)
2. Firebase Integration into our app

### 1. Running the app

Here we will run our app in the Go to [Running the App ( Web Browser)](/ionic-taxi-booking-app-starter/setup-and-deployment-1/running-the-app.md) section to complete this step. Here we will run our app in the development mode.

### 2. Firebase Integration into our App

Go to [Firebase Integration Into our App](/ionic-taxi-booking-app-starter/firebase-setup-and-integration/firebase-+-our-project.md)  section to complete this step. Here we will setup the **environment files** in Ionic project to connect to right firebase instance. Previously it will have config to our sample firebase. If the connection is proper and rules and permissions are right. You should get your app working.

After completing the above step, go to the **Admin App** running in the browser (as shown below). It should show the driver account you created at your **Driver App** in the "*Not Approved*" list of drivers. 

Approve the Driver as shown below.
