Ionic is an advanced HTML5 Hybrid Mobile App Framework used for developing
mobile apps.
Ionic is built on AngularJS and Apache Cordova.
It provides tools and services for building mobile UI with native look and feel.
Ionic framework needs a native wrapper to be able to run on mobile devices.
It allows you to build cross platform native applications using AngularJS.

Ionic was created by Drifty Co. in 2013. Drifty's prior products include
Codiqa and Jetstrap, drag-and-drop interface building tools using
jQuery Mobile and Bootstrap. Taking feedback from customers who
tried to build mobile apps, the team decided to build their own
framework that would focus on performance and be built with modern
Web standards. After releasing an alpha version of the framework in
November 2013, a 1.0 beta was released in March 2014, with a 1.0 final in
May 2015.
In 2015 Ionic developers reportedly created over 1.3M apps with the
SDK.

Ionic provides all the functionality that can be found in native mobile
development SDKs.
Users can build their apps, customize them for Android or iOS, and
deploy through Cordova.
Ionic includes mobile components, typography, interactive paradigms,
and an extensible base theme.
Based on SASS and provides tons of UI components for creating robust
and rich apps.
Ionic comes transported with a powerful CLI, providing mobile app
developers the ability to build and test Ionic apps on any platform.

Platform Independent Framework
Default User Interface
Feasible Cross Mobile App Development
Built On AngularJS

One source for all the suported platforms (mainly Android and OSX).
Main development in html, css and js, which almos all web developers know (or at
leas the good ones).
And being able to use great frameworks like angular, which is embedded in ionic by
default.
Less performance as it's not completely native, not that much of an issue unless making
games or high load apps, the ones that uses a lot of resources.

As the IoT industry grows, there will be a huge need for developers to build countless
mobile apps, quickly and inexpensively, that interact with sensors, Arduino chips, and
BLE. Ionic’s open source toolkit offers developers a free way to build attractive, user-
friendly, performant apps very quickly, using web technologies that are already familiar
to web developers and fairly easy for new mobile developers to master.
Here are a few of my favorite examples of Ionic apps being used for IoT projects –
A Daft Punk-Inspired Robot Helmet
A Crossfit WOD App
Duffel Bags with Integrated Bluetooth Beacons
Sensors that Monitor Concrete as it Sets

Ionic is focused on building for modern Web standards and for modern
mobile devices.
For Android, Ionic supports Android 4.1 and up.
For iOS, Ionic supports iOS 7 and up.
Ionic supports the Universal Windows Platform for building Windows 10
apps.
Ionic Framework, powered by Angular.js, supports BlackBerry 10 apps.

Compared to hybrid applications, mixing Ionic code with native mobile app code in
PhoneGap allows for higher performance of the resulting product: utilizing AngularJS
(rather than jQuery) allows Ionic to rely on native hardware acceleration (rather than
extensive DOM manipulation).
Ionic leverages CSS transitions and transforms for animation as a way to leverage the
GPU and maximize available processor time.

Ionic is an npm module and requires Node.js.
Ionic CLI
 Install Ionic from npm
 npm install - g ionic cordova
ionic start
ionic serve
ionic build
ionic emulate/run
ionic resources
ionic docs
ionic upload
ionic share
and many more....

Ionic Framework is the dominant HTML5 mobile development framework at present.
You don’t know how things will play out in this fast changing app development world,
but Ionic is well placed to go on its domination and become more and more better in the
future.
