The PWAs of today are the tip of the iceberg. They've already made huge leaps in the last couple years. Google has talked multiple times recently about their internal goals to bridge the gap between web apps and native apps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKVZMqpiY7w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKVZMqpiY7w - In my view, it's just a matter of time before the limits you speak of are non-existent.
- pjmlp 7y agoBefore PWAs I was pretty much on the field "native will win". Nowadays I think that long term, the only area that native will have over PWAs will be gaming, as WebGL/WebGPU will never provide full GPU access.
- yrio 7y agoWhat do you think about WebAssembly?
- pjmlp 7y agoFor one side I find it over hyped, it is just a bytecode format like many that came before it since UNCOL (1958), oversells security because while it is sandboxed, it won't prevent Heartbleed as bounds checking is only done at the edges of linear memory not to its internal contents, when multiple data structures are mapped into the same linear memory segment. On the positive note, I find WebAssembly + WebGL/WebGPU has opened the door to the return of Flash like tooling and I am myself playing around with this, being a big fan of ongoing Unity, Blazor, Uno Platform efforts.
