In conclusion, Ionic is suitable for making applications like this due to several advantages:

  • You can develop an app once, and deploy it across iOS, Android, and Windows devices.
  • The use of AngularJS creates a powerful SDK, for building rich and robust applications.
  • Framework’s focus on HTML, CSS, and JS enables quick development, low costs, and minimal maintenance.

Ionic is a great choice for creating basic native functionalities within an application to run on multiple devices and operating systems.

However, there are several disadvantages to using Ionic that one must take into account:

  • In-app performance may not be as swift as if the application were developed natively for each device.
  • The use of AngularJS demands that developers have a specific skillset for building complex apps.
  • Building in-app navigation can be notably complex, as the UI-router is tricky to maneuver at present.

Specific attention should be paid to the second disadvantage. Ionic can be very confusing to use if one does not have a certain level of skill and knowledge with the framework.

Ionic framework have its benefits and limitations. This Ionic framework allows for the creation of highly interactive, mobile apps that can be deployed across iOS, Android, and Windows devices. At the end of the day, your app development strategy is a business decision and the right framework/language should be used for the right situation.
