title: AngularJS/Ionic - ion-nav-view vs ion-view
body: <p>Please can somebody clarify when I would use an <code>ion-nav-view</code> opposed to an <code>ion-view</code>? I am learning AngularJS/Ionic (I have a basic understanding of AngularJS; and would like to use Ionic to enhance it).</p>
  
  <p>I understand the <code>ion-nav-view</code> implements the AngularUI Router service(?) which is a must in order to have nested views within views. But the documentation does not make clear where I should be using one or the other?</p>
  
  <p>All the documentation states for <code>ion-view</code> is:
  A container for content, used to tell a parent ionNavBar about the current view.</p>
  
  <p>But I have seen an <code>ion-view</code> used outside navbar interface.</p>
  
  <p>So what gives?</p>
