You've mis-read my statement as some sort of attack on native development and counter-attacked accordingly - even personally? I never said web tech was superior. I'm simply presenting a counter-argument to those that continue to deride web development and claim it can't hold a candle to native apps. There are endless examples of web applications done right that have compelling experiences and perform on par with native apps. I've provided a couple of examples in this thread, but there are countless others. I'm simply claiming web apps can be done right.
- tvon 13y agoYou gave a very cavalier response. > I'm going to take a wild stab at the primary reason he develops on the Mac is his own comfort and expertise with it (...) This to me reads as "I'm not going to put much thought into this, but it sounds like he is just ignorant." Maybe you didn't intend it that way, but that's how it read to me.
- zenocon 13y agoAt the risk of sounding cavalier :) see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5659447 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5659447 -- which is a better summary of the point I was trying to make. It seems he likes the Mac native platform, which is great, but don't try to sell me on the idea that all other platforms and the web, in particular fall short.
