What about Ionic v4 apps? Will Angular still be used? How we are going to write our app components, they will be based on Angular or Stencil?
What about Cordova hybrid apps? Do you plan to support them or focus exclusively on PWA apps?
Second of all, we will continue to support building Ionic apps with Angular. In fact, you shouldn't really notice any difference, we've just turned a number of the Ionic components into web components. It'll be fairly seamless but performance on load and code size should improve by a fair margin.
Long term? It's hard to argue against web components being a superior deployment option for both our components and your apps, so if developer preference shifts in that direction we might push stencil/web components as the default. Time will tell
Question: Do you have an ETA for release of the "Web Componentized" Ionic components? So looking forward to it, especially the potential of teaching e.g. Vue + Ionic components instead of having to put so much focus and effort on teaching Angular (which is a great framework, but requires a lot).
