4. Agenda
1. Ionic Overview
2. Native development challenges
3. Introducing Ionic Native
4. Common Use Cases
5. Demo: Encrypted Image Storage
6. Recap and Q&A

5. Ionic Framework
Mobile-ready UI library that works
everywhere: any platform, any
device, any framework.
✓ Build for iOS, Android, Electron, PWAs, Web
✓ One codebase across all platforms
✓ Use basic web skills: HTML, JS, CSS
✓ Full access to Native APIs

6. Hybrid Architecture
HTML | CSS | JavaScript
✓ Runs in a “browser” WebView, but is
wrapped in native app shell
✓ Access device capabilities via plugins
✓ Native runtime: Cordova or Capacitor
✓ Can be deployed to App Stores, Desktop,
and Web (PWA)

7. Native.
The most challenging
piece of the puzzle.

8. Typical Feature Checklist
✓ Offline access
✓ Single sign-on
✓ Biometrics authentication
✓ Core device features (camera, geolocation, etc.)
✓ Third-party integrations (Facebook, Apple Pay, Firebase, etc.)
Most of the essential app features and
requirements depend on available native
integrations and APIs.

9. Native Skill Gap
Navigating the native layer is hard for
any engineer, but especially so for
Web developers.
➔ Native Programming Languages
➔ SDKs, Tooling, IDEs
➔ Plugin architecture
➔ Cross-platform UX
➔ Talent is scarce: Only 6.5% of all developers

10. Free OSS Community Plugins
The hidden price of “free”:
➔ Time and effort to find & implement
➔ Debugging issues
➔ Unreliable release timelines
➔ Security: Patches and upgrades
➔ No SLAs

11. DIY Solutions
Why reinvent the wheel?
➔ Slows down development by weeks or months
➔ Introduces risk to the project
➔ Less time spent on what matters: focusing on
your core business
➔ Long-term maintenance costs

2. Lock the Vault (manually or with an
Inactivity Lockout)
3. Require Biometrics or PIN Unlock to retrieve
the information (or use At-Rest Encryption)
Encrypted Key-Value Store

19. Identity Vault + Offline Storage:
Robust querying and storage system for
data and files.
1. Generate an Encryption Token and store it
in Secure Storage
2. Store Data & Files in an Encrypted Local DB
3. Access that data through Advanced
Querying with Offline

Protection to hide info
Demo Recap
5. Lock the Vault (manually or with an
Inactivity Lockout), encrypting and
preventing access to the data
6. Require Biometrics or PIN Unlock to
retrieve the Token (or use At-Rest
Encryption)
7. Retrieve the Data from the Encrypted
Local DB
