Ionic is an open source front-end framework for developing hybrid mobile apps with HTML5. It allows developers to build apps that look and feel like native apps using web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Hybrid apps are developed using web technologies but wrapped in a native container using tools like Apache Cordova, allowing them to access native device capabilities and be distributed through native app stores. Ionic provides UI components and tools to help developers build high-quality hybrid mobile apps easily.
11. Apache Cordova is a set of device
APIs that allow a mobile app
developer to access native device
function such as the camera or
accelerometer from JavaScript.
