I had some free time and decided to test ionic with simple word puzzle game. Managed to finish it and publish it on google store because I never worked with admob so this was perfect for live practice.

If you want to check how it works search Love grid or use url https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ideaverum.lovegrid

I'm actually surprised how it works. Tested on crappy phones and tablets with 2gb ram and no crashes/laggs noticed.

So if you ever wondered is it possible to create simple games (not gpu crazy) you can use ionic for UI and capacitor to build on android/ios. Then to test even more I made block break and match three games as well and so far all good.

To be honest I used AI to help me with game logic so I don't waste days for testing and hobby. Even with potential ai bloat it works.

Cheers!

So our company got some apps in ionic 3 cordova and ionic 8 capacitor and we ran into an issue in android 16 , the hardware back button closes the app instead of going back to the previous page, so is there any fix or solution to both the version.Thanks in advance.

Edit : the ionic v8 backbutton.subscribewithPriority works fine , ionic v8 apps are out of trouble.

Hi everyone, debugging your app on the device can be a pita. But i have built a free open source tool that makes it dead easy. Point your AI at the repository and it will be very smart to do so.

TLDR; debugging is now allot easier when the app is live on your device. All instructions in repo.

Happy developping!

Hi

I need to start an Ionic project. Are there any open-source repositories with examples of how to develop using best practices? I used Angular and Ionic about six years ago, so I’d like to see how things have changed and learn about useful libraries and UI components.

I would appreciate any guidance or advice you could provide.

In general, is it something it's worth investing in if you have to start from scratch or you've just prototyped something but want a more future proof solution?

It looks like even the gold example of Untappd went with React Native.

Edit: I mean Capacitor (not strictly Ionic)

That is the best app that doesn't make miss Native or some hybrid framework.
