I'm assuming you've downloaded a theme from the Ionic market and have Ionic set up on your local machine.

One thing to note here is that your project MUST be an ionic1 project.

I tried following the guide (found here) with an ionic2 project, but it didn't work for me. Eventually I figured out that the project needs to be ionic1.

Use ionic start myApp blank --type ionic1 to create a ionic v1 project. Then delete the files in /www folder in your project directory, copy paste the files in your theme download (if there's a /www folder in the download then files insde it).

Now run ionic serve. If the app runs correctly, you're good to go. Now all you've got to do is tune the project's code as you want.

You can find sample themes here. To install sample themes, simply add the downloaded contents to an existing Ionic project's /www folder.

However, to use a theme you must first have a working Ionic project. Generally, you can install one by typing the following into your command prompt / terminal:

ionic start myapp [template]

This will create a new project from the prebuilt template, [template] with the folder name "myapp". Some default starter templates include "tabs", "sidemenu", and "blank". For example, you can install the template "blank" with the name "coolproject" with:

ionic start coolproject blank

These are full starter projects. More full starter projects can be found here. Good luck!
