Ionic 4: Should you Build a Hybrid App?

[Fireship]

Ionic v4 looks amazing and is unmatched in the hybrid app space. I also figured this would be a good opportunity to make some comparisons to Native SDKs, React Native and Flutter while we're at it. Have you used Ionic? Would love to hear your experience in the comments

Awesome video! I've been using ionic 3 for years but haven't tried ionic 4 yet. It's a shame that we have so many languages and libraries basically doing the same thing. People always prefer to choose the technology they are most familiar with, instead of something "better". I spent most of my time on Angular so the choice is obvious.

Wow, great video!, I love the descriptive and clarity of your talk

I was waiting for Ionic 4, i think it'll bring us a lot of new resourses for building all kind of things like for pwa it'll be awesome, thanks for sharing you're opinion and research about it with us.

Watching all the way from Papua New Guinea. Jeff, you are the KING!

If you are an angular guy and want to build a mobile app in less time, that has to perform daily task then go for ionic.
Or if you have more time to invest to learn and performance concerned go for flutter.

Great explained,
Regards.

I was using Ionic (v2-v3) to build our polling app but we could never get the app load times down to where we needed them.

This isn't me saying that Ionic will be slow for you, but that 'black box' problem is a real issue. At the time I went hunting for performance improvements and mostly found forum posts telling people that 'native is slow too' and the devs promising more updates in the future. Being 100% fair I'm guessing they delivered on those improvements but what I really needed was to see inside the black box so I could work out what packages I could ditch to improve load times.

So I moved over to Flutter (tree shaking built in), which has been a massive improvement. Thinking about doing some Flutter/Firebase content Jeff? ;)

awsome video. been migration one of my ionic 3 apps to 4 all day, not the most easy thing to do, but the ionic docs are very helpful.
also been building some apps with flutter and loving it, althought saying flutter has no bridge is not entirely true.
if you want to use device features like Geo Location or camera you still need to use a bridge( they call it a channel), its alot more similar to Cordova then to React native bridges.
the benefits are that you can write very performant code with dart that gets converted to byte code, that unlike webview apps where their might be diffrences with between the javascript engines or the css interpreter.
flutter apps will render the same on all devices.

Spectacularly concise. Very very good work. Just run into your channel. I'm not big on youtube for software related content but this is awesome.

Very good quality of the whole video. And the sound quality is great. The way You explain is awesome. HIGH-QUALITY product(video the whole thing) delivered. Thank you very much. more youtube channels like this. you can be a great teacher!

Had a chance to work with all these 3 framewors. Must to say, Flutter the most lovely for me. But, in next project we planned to share codebase for Web as well and Ionic is winner in this. Flutter for Web still under development and think Flutter will be absolute champion in near future.
ReacNative also cool, but development process really horrible for me.

[becayebalde]

I liked Ionic but had too many issues I can’t seem to understand. So I’m planning to transfer to react Native

Thanks so much!!!! This tutorial is GOLD.
