Good work. But they are cheating in one main spot:
- they use a proxy to cut down data transfer
Good choice, but comparing it with the orignal app is not valid anymore (its not really html5 that is making it faster)
Anyway its still a very fast mobile app, and html5 is sometimes the best choice to make.
Because it is very expensive to write a different app for all platforms currently.
However, currently, it is also very time consuming to have a html5 app that is on-par with native, and works well in both android and iphone.
So its a tradeoff really, html5 is not better than native, or vice versa.
Like so many things in life, it depends :-)
- joshtynjala 14y ago> comparing it with the orignal app is not valid anymore Facebook could have done the same thing with their app too, so I don't see how this affects validity.
- TeeWEE 14y agoIf I am comparing the speed of two cars, but one car contains 5 persons while the other one only contains 1, then it's an unfair comparison right?
