I’m using Ionic heavily and judge it through this lens.

- The components for iOS look nice, but some things are off: Sheet modal is weird. Animation of modals or side panels feel too slow.

- There are no animations when navigating forward or backwards.

- The demo has scrolling issues on iOS Safari and doesn’t always show the header.

- Unfaithful communication: it claims to give you native look and feel, which can never be true for HTML/CSS-based UIs that merely replicate native components.

- I see no point in using this instead of Ionic, because Ionic has the same or more components with less bugs, because it has been around a lot longer.



Yes I'm impressed by their extensive documentation and the Ionic integration seems well thought out but it's not clear to me why I would use that instead of the integrated Ionic components that looks almost identical to this library.
