Stuff like Cordova and Phonegap almost universally produce crappy apps. Doubly so if the person doesn't think they need to style the app for the individual platform, instead of just shipping the default (usually iOS) styling.
Shipping an app with one of those is almost universally saying, "I don't care about user experience, I just want to shovel something out the door as cheaply and quickly as possible."
- joeyspn 10y ago> Stuff like Cordova and Phonegap almost universally produce crappy apps. Again, don't blame the tool. Blame the bad usage of the tool. You're just saying: "Let's ban knives, assassins use them to do bad stuff!" > [...] style the app for the individual platforms [...] Ionic does this for you automatically. Surprise! http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/components/ http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/components/ It's easier to complain about the tools than acknowledge that you might be wrong about how you or your devs use them (because of unfamiliarity). Truth is many people are shipping stunning apps in no time thanks to web technologies.
- st3v3r 10y agoNo, I blame the tool because it's a poor tool. And I'm not using them wrong, because I'm not using them. I do native apps, because I care about my user's experience.
