The official command-line interface for the Ionic Framework, used to create, build, serve, and deploy Ionic mobile and web apps. It integrates with Cordova and Capacitor for native builds and provides project scaffolding and a live-reload dev server.

Use cases

  • scaffold a new ionic app
  • run a local dev server with live reload for my mobile app
  • build and deploy an app to android or ios via capacitor
  • generate ionic pages and components from the terminal
  • manage cordova plugins for my hybrid app
  • create a pwa from an ionic project

When to choose

  • you are developing an Ionic Framework app and need project scaffolding, serving, and native builds
  • you want a unified CLI wrapping Cordova or Capacitor workflows
  • you need integrated live-reload development for hybrid mobile apps

When to avoid

  • you are building a native app with Swift, Kotlin, or React Native without Ionic
  • you need a general-purpose JavaScript build tool unrelated to Ionic
  • you want a GUI-based app builder rather than a terminal tool
