Awesome news guys, good to see some Midwest companies getting love. Always been a fan of your work and Ionic is a great framework.

That&#x27;s fantastic news for them, and me by extension. I&#x27;ve been watching their project closely since discovering it and am excited to prototype a hybrid app with it for my new startup soon. If the performance really does meet their claims, I will be one happy AngularJS wielding front end engineer.

Awesome, definitely using this for my next project. When I was originally looking at this, I thought your Ionic Weather app screenshot was pulling my location. Turns out your guys are in Madison!

I&#x27;m always curious what the business model is. I don&#x27;t see any clear call to action on <a href="http://ionicframework.com/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;ionicframework.com&#x2F;</a>

Congrats to drifty&#x2F;ionic team, what you have achieved so far is great, your angular symbiosis is remarkable. I&#x27;m developing my startup mobile app with ionic despite its alpha tag. I have a question, maybe I must ask on your forum but I&#x27;m here right now. Do you have plans to implement some UI components truly native? through cordova&#x2F;phonegap plugins. I think that you are in good position to implement that, even using angular directives as you do now. That will be great.

Fantastic news, we are developing our startup&#x27;s apps on the Ionic framework and it&#x27;s been great so far. Every now and then I get around to putting some Ionic specific tips up on Coderwall if anyone is interested.<p>Here&#x27;s a horizontal slider directive I implemented the other day. Am very keen to see what new animations come out of Drifty soon :)<p><a href="https://coderwall.com/p/gzzoxa" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;coderwall.com&#x2F;p&#x2F;gzzoxa</a>

I tried to use this for a recent project but struggled with performance issues on Android. Not recommended at this time for production.

I wonder if there is any plans to fully support Android. By that, I mean, the UI is iOS specific, and doesn&#x27;t seem to adopt to the way Android does things. Simply porting an iOS app to Android and reusing the same interface is basically saying that Android is a second class citizen.

how does this measure up to Intel XDK?
