Ionic, PhoneGap, Cordova and React Native: Terms explained
Ionic is an HTML5 framework that is responsible for making hybrid UI look and feel closer to that of native apps.
The framework includes a wide range of UI components (e.g. buttons, menus, cards, etc.), interactions (e.g. navigation gestures) and layouts that imitate the look of the targeted platform.
Apache Cordova is an open-source framework for building mobile apps with HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript.
The result is essentially a single page web app that runs inside a WebView (a barebones full-screen browser without an address field).
Cordova has a number of plugins to access the hardware features.
PhoneGap is a distribution (sub-type) of Cordova maintained by Adobe.
Both frameworks are the same at their core, but PhoneGap has a few minor additions that integrate it with the Adobe ecosystem.
