Why is there not a web based IRC app?

  Lounge is very good

  There is! irccloud.com is pretty awesome. They have a pretty good mobile app as well (at least on android - I'm not an iOS user). (I'm not affiliated with them, I'm just a happy user)

  IRC is a TCP-based protocol and browsers don't support TCP connections. There are web-based applications that communicate with IRC but they require a proxy running on a server.
