I agree generally with the two types of experiences, but I'd also submit that there's no easy, clear deliniating line and it's much more of a spectrum between the two types. I really think some of the quirky magic of the web comes from this doc / app hybrid thing it supports and bifurcating them fully would be a mistake.

- ordinaryradical 4y agoI think the spectrum is the right mental model, too. E-commerce stores have different interactivity needs than blogs, which have different needs than documentation, which has different needs than dashboards, which have different needs than real-time collaboration tools, and on and on and on. Much of the framework angst is around the assumption of a singular tool for all these varieties of interaction and the annoyance that comes with not acknowledging the trade-offs. Plus the web itself is changing, so the breadth of this spectrum is increasing. Years ago, the ends might not have been very far apart but they are diverging more with each new use-case and app idea.
