Way to much hate here. I run an app with ~30k users and I never get any complaints about lag or comments on the stores that reflect negative on the performance.

Ionic 2 has given me two platforms and a great development experience. The few times I've had problems they have an amazing responsive team on Slack that's helped me out right away.
- cyberferret 10y agoI've built many apps using Ionic, and usually with good results. I think the problem is that people don't really look at their 'use case' when designing their apps. There are apps where a hybrid solution works great, and apps where is doesn't. If you are going to build an app that requires you to display 1000 items in a scrolling list, then yeah, forget any sort of Hybrid or Cordova based app - go full native. Similarly if you want to have complex background geo-location tracking that doesn't suck your battery dry. You can't optimise that using Cordova as the 'go between', but you have to go native. Outside of that, Ionic/Cordova will cover you bases and let you get apps to market 20x quicker without your users realising that it is not a native app.
