Ionic has launched a new podcast titled "Bet on the Web," hosted by Matt Netkow and Mike Hartington, to emphasize their commitment to web technologies such as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) and web components. Unlike traditional tech podcasts, this series will explore various topics through the perspective of the Open Web, featuring discussions with the Ionic team and industry leaders on trends, thought leadership, and emerging technologies in the web platform space. The podcast, available on the web and Apple Podcasts, initially includes episodes that delve into hybrid vs. native mobile app development and the strategic considerations for organizations choosing a mobile app development approach. The podcast promises more episodes covering topics like enterprise architecture, frontend security, and continuous deployment, and encourages listeners to suggest future topics.
