Ionic is a cross-platform solution that is becoming increasingly popular, so it's no wonder you've heard of it. If you are wondering if this is the right technology for your project, you may be interested in our article "Mobile App Development Technology Stack - What's the best? How to choose one?" in which we describe in detail how to choose the appropriate technology. In short, the best way to choose a tech stack for your project is by conducting a product discovery process. Remember that mobile app development is a time-consuming and pretty expensive process, so picking the right technology should be your number one priority!

This Ionic framework is a great choice for developing custom mobile apps when you don't want to settle for just one platform. This is something that native apps cannot match.

The frontend user experience and UI interaction of an app are what Ionic focuses on UI controls, interactions, gestures, and animations. It's simple to learn and connects with different libraries or platforms, such as Angular, React, or Vue. Alternatively, standalone without any frontend framework using a minimal script include is possible.

Since the Ionic framework is the most popular cross-platform app development solution, over 5 million such applications have been created. Therefore, we have selected a few of the most interesting, which may interest you enough to try Ionic during your project.

However, before we get to know the most interesting applications, let's find out what Ionic really is. Ionic is freely available, open-source, and a front-end SDK framework that enables you to create mobile-based applications for iOS, Windows, and Android phones using the same codebase. It proves to be a cross-platform tool for mobile development. Ionic is a solution that we successfully used in many projects.

The Director of Product at market Watch Brian Aguilar said "We picked Ionic because of how heavily it leans on existing technologies that we are familiar with and use regularly, but we wanted something that also didn’t compromise on the app experience. The fact that the framework is so performant only reinforced our decision. We’re incredibly pleased with the outcome and think Ionic has made our app stronger.”
