Here's a list of common GUI elements that HTML/DOM lacks or does poorly: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/otixwo/comment/h6zi86w/ https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/otixwo/comment... Summary of list: * Statefulness tied to session * Predictable & consistent text positioning * Split-panels/frames (HTML5 butchered them) * Combo-boxes * Nested drop-down menus * MDI/dialog ability tied to session * Tabbed panels * Tool-bars * Sliders and turn-knobs * Editable data-grid * Expandable trees * "Normal" multi-select * Status bar (newer browsers screwed them up) * Fuller keyboard shortcuts * Graphic/art elements & data inputs at same time * Consistent & biz-friendly number & date inputs
