It's lazy to give up and devote all your energies on yet another company's proprietary platform. Instead of constantly writing articles like this, how about we focus on the obstacles web apps face, and fix them. Sure, if both a web app and native app are programmed optimally, the native app will run slightly faster. But a program written in machine code will always be faster still. There will come a point when the speed disadvantage is outweighed by all the benefits of web apps - and that time is near. The biggest issues with web apps are: - Development. Creating web apps requires writing code in at least 3 different languages, including server code, client code, and markup code. Try making an iOS paint app that saves your drawing to the cloud. Then try doing it as a web app. If you think this is easy, believe me, Objective C is a drrreeeam. - Discovery. The App Store/Google Play are the best ways to discover new apps. There exists no such popular and lively platform for web app discovery, review, and sales. - Browser and OS Dependency. Mobile browsers don't all allow access to the camera, easy installation to the home screen, and all the access to APIs a full-featured app should have. So let us be constructive from now on, and focus on fixing these issues, instead of giving up and locking ourselves into reliance on yet another company (Flash, iOS, Android, etc).
