Show HN: I made a mobile game using HTML5 with Ionic Hey all, I wanted to share a recent weekend project I worked on. A few months ago, I discovered Ionic and I absolutely love it. https://ionicframework.com/ I’m not convinced I could build an “enterprise” app with it but for little personal throw away projects, I think it’s great. For anyone not familiar with it, it basically wraps a native app around a webview and provides a bunch of css to make the app feel more native. I built a little mobile app with it last month but I got especially excited by the idea of making a mobile game. I just threw in an HTML canvas element and I was successfully able to build a short game. What’s great is UI is also pretty easy to add with HTML. Over all it took me roughly 2 days to make a small mobile game which I’m counting as a success.
