    Recently read an article on hackernoon on this question. According to it, the best mobile app development framework is with no doubt Ionic. The author put it in the first place claiming that apart from other benefits such as cross-platform nature or ease of adoption, Ionic has one the lowest development costs (which is a great benefit for startups).
    However, in my personal opinion, React Native is better. It's faster in deployment and is based on JSX, so the developers don't need to learn any additional programming languages. So, all in all using React Native speeds up the whole development process.

    Hope my answer could help.
    Best.

      What about the performance of the generated app though? Is it indistinguishable from natively built apps?

    While working in a reputable app development company MobInspire, without any doubt I can say Ionic is the best app development framework as it is easy to adopt, enables cross-platform app development, and low cost. Other few excellent app development frameworks include Phonegap, Xamrin, and React Native.

      Intel XDX is no longer available. It was based on PhoneGap.

      Ionic is also based on PhoneGap.

      PhoneGap does not come with a mobile user interface, so you have to select a UI framework or DIY one.

      JQuery Mobile is just a UI framework kind of like Bootstrap, so it also requires PhoneGap to build a hybrid mobile app.

    I am voting for Xamarin. This Framework is used for native applications development (not for websites). The main advantage is time and money If you want to develop an application for Android and iOS, Xamarin can help to save up to 30% of budget.
