Great flexible development platform with a huge potential

Took a long time to install and get all operational, but time well spent as it looks like. Hope to deliver a great app to the designers to dress up my basic app but should be a breeze.

What they liked
  • I like the fundamental idea of a common javascript codebase for all our front end apps
  • I like Angular so it's a match made in heaven
  • Large installed base and user groups, tips and help on the Internet
Room for improvement
  • It's a handful to install and configure, both on Android and iOS
  • Did not make it easier with a beta release installed of Xcode
  • All issues were eventually fixed and all working smoothly
Why they chose it

"Save time now and in the future. One code base - great."

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.

What they liked

The fact that it is a technology capable of producing fast and agile results for different types of platforms makes development very simple

Room for improvement
  • at the moment there is nothing I should regret

A good mobile UI toolkit for quick projects

Verified reviewer

What they liked
  • A great framework to add to projects that have strict deadlines or budgets
  • It's great that it integrates with Angular and helps build cross-platform mobile apps with a consistent and polished user interface
Room for improvement
  • The main thing was the learning curve, for people who are new to the framework

Ionic- A Hybrid app development framework

Computer Software

What they liked
  • 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
Room for improvement
  • App is a hybrid app
  • It offers near native experience but not exactly native

web/mobile app development just needs Ionic

Telecommunications

What they liked
  • you can reuse your web development skills to build mobile and web apps
  • Basically, apps that run everywhere and are very relevant
Room for improvement

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

Why they chose it

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

Verified reviewer

What they liked
  • easy to use and lots of references and easy to find on the internet

Ionic

Very impressed and managed to complete the project.

What they liked
  • 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
Room for improvement

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