My experience with ionic has not been very pleasant. I don't know if I did anything wrong, but basically adding something more complex than buttons and text boxes resulted in very bad performance.<p>We ended up dropping the framework after struggling to include an interactive map into our app, anything web based didn't perform decently even on high-end devices.<p>Another minor annoyance was not being able to quickly reload the app on the device. However, the browser integration made the dev experience more than decent.<p>This was some time ago, so I'm curious to hear other people's experience on the matter. Maybe things have gotten better performance-wise!
