Ionic is a cross-platform mobile framework developed to create apps using web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It packages these web-based applications using Capacitor for deployment on iOS and Android platforms. Unlike React Native, which uses native views, Ionic apps run within a webview, allowing for faster development cycles with familiar web tooling. This approach, however, may result in slightly reduced performance and a non-native appearance in some scenarios. Ionic is especially favored for business-to-business (B2B) mobile applications where rapid development takes precedence over achieving a perfect native UI.
