Ionic - Interview Questions
What are native, hybrid and mobile web applications?
Native applications : Applications for specific devices, such as smartphones and tablets, are known as native applications. It can be downloaded via an application store (such as Google Play or Apple's application Store) and installed straight on the device. They are available at all times on the smartphone and can be accessed via icons on the home screen. These applications can work offline and utilise the device's notification system. Camera, Collage-Maker, Google Maps, Facebook, and other well-known native applications are just a few examples.

Mobile web applications : These are internet-enabled applications with features tailored to mobile devices. Web browsers on mobile devices are used to access mobile web applications. They do not require downloading or installation on the device.

Hybrid applications : These are the ones that incorporate features from both native and online applications. It can be installed on a device in the same way that any other application can. They are written with web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and are similar to native applications. They're popular because they enable developers to write only one piece of code for a mobile application and publish it across various platforms.
