Not really, no

Except, you know, for all the reasons where anything web-based sucks: resources needed to run, fast reaction times, performant animations, rich complex controls etc.
The web, unfortunately, made everyone accept the most limited and under-developed version of what things could be.
- holoduke 3y agoI would argue that the css render engine is more performant than its native counterparts. Css animations are very rich. Much more so than android or ios sdks provide
- troupo 3y agoIf you think about them in isolation, maybe. But you have to apply them to DOM. Where every single little thing results in a re-layout and repaint. There are reasons why you still can't animate height: auto. The built-in controls also don't help. Can't find it now, but details set display:none or visibility:none on closed contents, and that can't be animated. And there are a million such things.
