Ionic is the open source HTML5 Mobile Framework for building amazing, cross-platform native apps with HTML, JavaScript, and CSS.
We built Ionic because the options for using HTML5 in native apps weren't good enough. They weren't built to focus on
native apps targeting the newest of devices. They had too many hacks to support old devices that didn't have
meaningful market share, or they were too focused on building mobile websites.
Many were slow, had excessive DOM operations, and relied on bulky libraries like jQuery. They weren't built with
performance and great design as the top concerns.
With Ionic, we've built a framework meant for native. We don't tie you to the URL bar, and we aren't dwelling on the past or
worrying about supporting marginal, slow devices.
We built Ionic because we wanted a framework that focused on building hybrid native apps, rather than mobile websites. We wanted this framework to be obsessive about great design and performance. A framework that left the past behind and focused on the future where mobile devices could make HTML5 feel native.
It's important to realize that Ionic is not a replacement for frameworks used for building mobile web apps. There are a lot
of great solutions that work well for websites, like [jQuery Mobile](http://jquerymobile.com/).
Ionic is also not a good solution if you need to support older generation devices. Our compatibility *starts* at iOS 6 and Android 4.1. We will never support versions earlier than those.
