well, what's great about the web as a platform is that it is only one framework. the web. It renders HTML, styled with CSS, and is programmed using JavaScript.

well, what's great about the web as a platform is that it is only one framework. the web. It renders HTML, styled with CSS, and is programmed using JavaScript. unless you count server side languages. you can use JavaScript libraries if you choose but that's your choice. If you decide to use Backbone.js and then you find out Angular is more popular, that's okay because in the end, you're still writing code for the same platform. that is why the web is so great. just write a good HTML 5 application and it will work on most devices--especially native html5 phones.
