I'd say the vast majority of words online are in documents, not in apps.
Wikipedia is documents, news sites are documents, wordpress blogs (that are not shops etc) are documents. Even in this forum, when threads are locked after some time, they become documents. Even if they are dynamic behind the scenes.
Naturally, if you are writing something like Twitter, Gmail, any SAAS app, ... you need a different approach than when building websites for documentation, essays, news, and so on.
- mattmanser 6y agoWikipedia is a web application. Your example is about an app. Anything that uses dynamic pages to generate content, like wikipedia, is a web application and benefits from more structured, class based, CSS. 99% of the web is run on web applications. Whether it be Wordpress, Wikipedia, a news site CMS, whatever, they're all applications.
