I'm suggesting not using HTML for the client. Anything running in a browser is heavy and slow compared to well written native code.

- lliamander 4y agoI think there's an argument for HTML-focused clients - the whole web (including this site) benefits from hypermedia. I'm less convinced about Javascript SPAs. Perhaps the biggest advantage is that you don’t have to "install" these apps. The browser just downloads the source and runs it automatically in a (somewhat) sand-boxed environment. Also, they work on "most" systems (though mobile vs. desktop is still a thing).
