I've developed some apps in Ionic/Cordova and Ionic/Capacitor. I agree that it's a decent system, especially for people (like me) who are just in a rush to implement something and aren't so caught up in platform wars.
I'm one of those people who couldn't care less about the language I use to code in - I just want to get stuff done. From my perspective, Javascript has some stupid stuff, but so does every other language.
My only significant objection to Ionic/Capacitor is the whole nodejs ecosystem. I hate getting dropped into dependency hell all the time. And it's significantly worse if you're stuck (as I a) supporting an end-of-lifed Cordova plugin for necessary functionality.
Now, in the real world, I'd have a team and we'd just build our own version of the plugin and get rid of the web of dependencies, but sadly I'm just one not-very-bright guy off on his own.
