[Usman Sabuwala](https://hashnode.com/@usman2102)If you use ionic elements you will have access to a native ionic component which will give you a native look, but if you choose CRA then you won't be able to get the benefits from the ionic framework.

[sridhar katta](https://hashnode.com/@sridhar02) Ohk. So for web apps too, it's better to use Ionic. Thanks
