Ionic- A Hybrid app development framework

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

I have used Angular based Ionic framework to develop and release my app in Android play store and iOS app store. Ionic with its libraries and packages and build process has made this very easy to develop.

Cons:

App is a hybrid app. It offers near native experience but not exactly native.

Just produce

The benefits are many: integration with libraries and frameworks on the market, plugins, the fact that a single project can run on multiple platforms (IOS, android, web), documentation with examples.

web/mobile app development just needs Ionic

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

you can reuse your web development skills to build mobile and web apps. Basically, apps that run everywhere and are very relevant.

Cons:

perhaps the docs with the APIs for the components could be better explained, I always feel there is a gap between what the docs say and how I write the code in my apps.

Reasons for choosing Ionic

they use Angular as a backend framework and Angular has a good name in the web development area.

Pros:

Like any framework you should try many to find the best fit for your project. For us it was Ionic. Multi platform deployment from a single codebase, excellent features and not to steep a learning curve.

Cons:

Some aspects we wanted to try took some tweaking but online help is great and we achieved what we wanted.
