Hybrid Mobile Application Using AngularJS, WebAPI and Ionic Framework

Hybrid Mobile applications considered as simple web application, primarily built using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Instead of running these applications on mobile browser, it will run on thin native container. Running an application under native container will helps to access mobile native features like access camera, calendar, contacts, notifications, Geolocation, Gestures (swipe, pinch and spread) and etc.

Hybrid Application vs. Native Application

  1.  Developing Hybrid Application as simple as developing web application using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Developing Native Application needs a lot of learning curve i.e. Developer has to learn Objective – C for IOS applications, Java for Android applications and C#.NET for windows phone applications
  2.  Performance wise Native applications are faster compare to Hybrid Applications
  3.  Native applications supports lot of inbuilt UI components for designing
  4.  Hybrid Applications use Native Container i.e. WebView in Android and UIWebView in iOS to run the application
  5. Developer has to use one of the following framework to create Hybrid Applications
  •  Ionic Framework
  •  Apache Cordova
  •  Adobe PhoneGap
Ionic Framework:

It is an open source framework to build mobile applications. It is hybrid application development framework built using AngularJS library.

1. Fully cross-platform
2. More than 70 in-built native plugins
