Well I would say that using Ionic with React is using React by itself.

Ionic isn't a framework, it's a UI components library.

Therefore the fundamental remains the same. Components, functional components, hooks, react-dom, JSX, state, or even redux and all other subjects, etc. same same.

But of course, what's really important, is to find the way which fits you the best 😃

Well, let's not split hairs. Framework or component library - Ionic is really cool, and it makes it very easy to make cross platform apps. The reason I suggest that you learn React by itself first, is that you don't have to learn the APIs of Ionic at the same time.

But for sure - finding your own path is important ✌️
