About

A cross-platform native runtime for web apps. Capacitor is an open-source native runtime for building web native apps. Create cross-platform iOS, Android, and progressive web apps with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Drop Capacitor into any existing web app. Install the native platforms you want to target. Capacitor’s native plugin APIs make it extremely easy to access and invoke common device functionality across multiple platforms. Ship cross-platform mobile apps 10X faster. We wrote a free guide on when and why to use Capacitor to build cross-platform apps. Access the full Native SDKs on each platform, and easily deploy to the app stores (and the web). Add custom native functionality with a simple Plugin API, or use existing Cordova plugins with our compatibility layer. Capture images, save photos, and configure hardware parameters like saturation and color balance. Save and read documents, assets, and other content your users need to access via native file systems.

About

The Ionic Platform allows you to bring your apps to market faster with an integrated app platform built on the leading cross-platform mobile SDK. Build, secure, and deliver new mobile apps—and transform existing ones—across iOS, Android, and Web platforms from a single codebase. Full scalability—Grow from prototype to production to enterprise-scale, without having to think about capacity, reliability, or performance. Better apps, everywhere—Slash your development time and costs with a platform that lets you write once and deploy anywhere—iOS, Android, and Web. The core of the Ionic development experience is Ionic Capacitor, a cross platform native runtime that runs equally well on native iOS and Android mobile devices, as well as any web browser. The big difference is that, unlike traditional native development or cross-platform approaches, the UI of a Capacitor app runs primarily in the browser.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The constant improvement, the community, the ease of implementation, how well it works on devices.
  • Ionic has a great set of tools and features that make it a breeze to create beautiful, interactive apps. It's easy to use, with a simple drag-and-drop interface, so even those with limited coding experience can quickly put together an app. It also supports both Android and iOS, so you can create apps for both platforms, and it integrates well with other frameworks like Angular and Cordova, so it's easy to add in additional features.
  • Hands down the best tool for ios and android development. Our church team just produced version 2 of our app using Ionic, VS Code and elbow grease. We love the ecosystem with Cordova's libraries Push notifications are also easier now! The speed is lovely.
  • When I was looking to build my first mobile application, I really wanted to write once and deploy to both Android and iOS. Everyone told me I would not be able to use native functionality if I did this. But they were wrong and the native integration just gets better and better. I now support web, PWA as well as Android and iOS from a single code base. I also love AppFlow which makes compiling and distributing apps to the Apple App Store easy.
  • We use a lot capacitor.js to enable every javascript framework to work well in mobile. Our team currently do not work with iOS, so AppFlow is a great tool to build, deploy and automate ours mobile apps updates.

Cons

  • In some of the services, the lack of reliability.
  • The biggest downside to Ionic is that it has limited native capabilities. If you want to access device hardware or use native functions, you'll need to use a platform-specific SDK. Additionally, Ionic can be a bit slow and resource-intensive, so if you're looking for a lightweight solution, it may not be the best option.
  • Honestly nothing yet. Our app is simple but good looking. We haven't needed to push the limit just yet.
  • I would love to see better integration to local/native applications. Example download a PPTX and show using a local/native copy of PowerPoint.
  • Some features like .env in AppFlow is a little expensive to small projects.
