This tag is for questions specifically targetting version 4 of the Ionic Framework.
Ionic Framework is an open-source html5 hybrid mobile application development framework that helps in building cross-platform mobile applications with standard Web technologies like html, css, typecript and web-component's.
Ionic Framework is focused on giving a native-like UI experience, built on top of web technologies.
Traditionally, it has used Apache cordova and angular. Since January 2019, Ionic 4 allows developers to choose multiple frameworks including
angular, react, vue.js, and web components.
Ionic also has a rich Command Line Interface which enables the developers to create, build, test and deploy applications.
Ionic 4 is built using stenciljs which is a compiler that creates Web Components.
The Ionic Team are also developing an alternative to Cordova, called Capacitor. capacitor is a cross-platform app runtime that allows developers to build web apps that run natively on iOS, Android, Electron and the web.
