First off I am not here to bash the Ionic Framework, I am here to information based on my questions. I have had a look at the ionic ui components and angular material and they are basically the same. I have also scaffolded an ionic blank app and I have a look at the project folder size and it is a whooping 372MB that’s huge and I haven’t even started building my app based on the blank template. I understand that some will say that ionic has been optimized for mobile but how exactly? If I use cordova and angular with angular material I will have a much smaller app size. And ionic is just a wrapper around cordova while using angular, even angular material is a wrapper around angular material. So considering all this would cordova with angular and angular material be a better option?
