Ionic Framework
The mobile SDK for the Web.

Ionic Framework is an open-source UI toolkit that enables web developers to build cross-platform mobile apps and Progressive Web Apps from a single codebase using React, Vue, or Angular. It provides pre-built mobile UI components, hardware-accelerated transitions, and touch-optimized gestures. Through Capacitor integration, it allows access to native device features like Camera, GPS, and Bluetooth while deploying to iOS, Android, and the web.
Ionic provides a library of mobile UI components and a Capacitor bridge that compiles a single JavaScript/TypeScript codebase into native iOS and Android apps.
