It is an HTML5 development
framework and used to build hybrid mobile applications. Ionic can be compared
as a UI framework that handles UI interactions of applications. It supports
native mobile components & beautiful design. Ionic helps for providing
components and themes which used to build the application for having an elegant
and functional User Interface. Components are made up of HTML, CSS, and
JavaScript and offering two types of themes for mobile apps considering as
light themes and dark themes.
Features that make it
usable are typography, mobile components, and extensible base theme. The ionic
command line interface comes with a built-in development server.
Benefits we cover while
developing an app through Ionic:
- Easy to adopt: As it is an HTML development framework, the
app is easier to develop.
- Cross-platform app development: Apps are built up quickly
while saving time.
- User Interface: components and themes are highly
customizable. So it allows adapting the platform on which application is
running.
- Built on AngularJS: AngularJS is a widely used framework
that allows ionic to provide the robust structure which makes the platform more
manageable.
- Performance: Higher performance compared to hybrid
application.
Ionic is an outstanding choice for building basic
native functionalities within an application to run on a different operating
systems.
