I like Ionic: An OutSystems Company for its ability to build cross-platform apps quickly using a single codebase. It simplifies the challenge of developing and maintaining separate applications for Android, iOS, and web platforms by allowing development from one codebase. The initial setup was fairly easy, thanks to the clear documentation, and getting started with templates, CLI tools, and framework integration was straightforward for basic app development.

Ionic can sometimes have performance limitations compared to fully native apps, especially for complex applications. Plugin compatibility and debugging issues can also occasionally slow development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Probably the components. They are very straightforward to use thanks to their amazing documentation. Great support, community, and documentation go a long way for developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are not many downsides but working with the shadow-DOM to customize components would probably be one. If you can avoid having too many customizations then this is the perfect product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ionic have helped me fast development and being a founder and CTO of startup I can say that we need to be very fast in testing features, to test more things that customer is liking and not liking. Ionic have really helpful in faster development and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The performance of UI have been quite disappointing for me, I am still struggling with the performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ionic gives you (regardless of your framework preference) a powerful way to build an idea or concept quickly and deploy it to a real mobile app and/or a desktop application. For many applications, use of existing knowledge of Javascript or Typescript is all that is required. You can do a lot without ever having to mess with native code. Even if you do need native functionailty, a plethora of existing plugins handle all but the most customized needs.

The provided tooling works well. Updates are consistent and happen regularly. The overall quality of the framework we use the most (Angular) is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using Ionic in the long term can be a struggle as you build more device-specific solutions. While most of the plugins work well, they sometimes have bugs or issues that, if your team isn't used to them, are going to be big blockers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's such an easy to use platform. It takes so much of the mess of developing mobile apps out of the equation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wish there were some better video tutorials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very efficient to create hybrid websites in order to display it correctly on different devices.

It works very well with Vue and React and the integration itself is quite simple.

It just lets you work on single codebase for different platforms.

Also, it has got a lot of pre built templates for the ease of the developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although it has got a lot of plugins, adding them is a bit tedious process. Except for this, I don't find anything else to dislike about Ionic Framework. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, awesome customer support, extensive docs; number of plugins and features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had a few challenges setting up the Capacitor app, e.g. server config file is being changed when server is running - leading to it being shown in VCS. But in general you can live with it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
