Oh yeah, I should have qualified that with "developing applications in non-native code for native platforms doesn't have much appeal from a user perspective".

Oh yeah, I should have qualified that with "developing applications in non-native code for native platforms doesn't have much appeal from a user perspective". ie: it would be great if the Official Account apps available through WeChat were native (and users would like that) but they're not; broadly speaking, webviews are typically less appealing than native layout. I 100% agree that the tight integration of services is a big win from the perspective of a user.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoOk, I'll agree with your clarified point. Personally I'm alergic to webviews, I can immediately tell which application is native and which is a thin layer on top of the browser, by the very virtue of the latter sucking hard.
- nstj 10y agoA "long press" on a link in an app can often assist in separating the native "wheat" from the webview "chaff".
