GPT #5Claude #5Gemini #5
excellent for web teams, fast delivery, huge JavaScript ecosystem, strong PWA/web reuse, simple native plugin bridge for many business apps
What would move Capacitor up
- GPT close the gap on high-end native performance and platform-specific UX
- Claude Close the performance and feel gap — WebView rendering still can't match compiled UI for animation-heavy or highly interactive apps, which caps how premium an Ionic app can feel
- Gemini Enhance default UI transitions and web-to-native bridge performance to match the responsiveness of compiled frameworks.
