PhoneGap is a developer friendly implementation of Cordova.

To my knowledge, there's nothing you can do with phonegap that you can't do with Cordova.

In general though, most things will be easier with Phonegap.


Phonegap is:

  • Owned by Adobe
  • a set of developer tools
  • a fairly rich ecosystem of plugins
  • for accessing any APIs and code re-use
  • a build service
  • you send your source code to their servers, and their servers send you back a compiled app.


That last point may be a deal breaker, given the business rules that you're required to meet. If that's the case, Use a PWA, Cordova, React Native, the like, or a truly native framework
