Progressive Web Apps (PWA) Vs Native Apps

I think it’s time to build a flavor of Linux, call it Web OS that has its own portal called Metazilla which unsandboxes browser performance and becomes the single portal for all applications and application development. No more native versus PWA debate. This can be accomplished by creating a larger sandbox of legal accountability for app that access the web and insurance requirements relative to damages.

Most native applications are not really native. In Android for example, Java is not really native. You need the use the JNI to introduce real native code.
If you use only Java or Kotlin, I wonder what is the difference with WASM then. From my experience with WASM modules, they perform so well that it leads me to think that for most use cases the wins in terms of development and multi-platform compatibiliy are much greater than the loss of speed, which might be unnoticeable.
Due to this, I think more and more APIs will be brought to the web, to the point that we will probably be able to do the same as 'native' apps.

hahah the Onlyfans moment was nice

PWA already dead and lost it is google supprort...

I need a web developer

Natives apps sound good at first glance but they are just a way for putting odorless odorless shit in Your device. Performance, Support & Even long term mantienability those are quirks of HTML they are mature and work fine out of the box. On the otherside there is Flutter and React Natives. Lack of Support. Everything You See can stop working on weeks leaving along performance and stability. Wish makes me wonder how mucho of a diferencia is between those programmers and this ones fron today. It's plain view for how business shit on everything that means to be honestly good.

I've removed many apps to replace them with pwas. The best one I've seen is xbox's cloud gaming system, which is almost 100% interchangeable between native and web. Another really good one is Audible.

If you’re in B2B, PWA makes way more sense. For consoomers, native seems better, but I would also do a PWA for those who don’t want to deal with the BS of getting the app, updating it, etc..

Maybe just maybe If PWA's are able to catch up with Native apps. Hopefully, FirefoxOS can try to relaunch again

To be honest I use both. I only use Native apps when offline when need to

Pros of native app is that millions of users can use it all together at once without worrying about internet bandwidth. While PWA requires powerful server for hosting if the creator expects millions of users.

Piii-dabbllyu-eeh

Thank you very much.

Fabulous. Very clear. So many videos launch straight into 'build a PWA' or 'native app' but don't take the time to explain the difference.👍

I guess if you’re a mom and pop shop, on a tight budget, or you are lacking in skills then PWA is for you. Native is always a better end user experience, performance, OS integration. There’s no comparison.

Very good. Very clear, thank you!

you get so much more storage space with pwa's

Great video!

Hello guys :) Is it possible to send push notifications to iOS from PWA? Is it finally working?

Thanks sir, good overview!

absolutely erroneous statement about consistency of pwa's ui. if you ever build any electron or taru apps you probably know what a pain in the rear consistent ui rendering. Not even going to mention differences in browsers and component platforms like react or angular. it is counter intuitive but consistent ui is way better in many native, despite it's simplicity.

Good content. Thanks!

PWAs offer a good middle ground between native and cross-platform apps.
They use web technologies, so they can be developed and maintained more easily, but they also offer many of the same features and capabilities as native apps. This makes them a good choice for companies that want to have a mobile presence without the resources to invest in native app development.

Are we going to talk about how Apple pretty much stuck a knife into the heart of PWAs? Or, at least, into the heart of them being the panacea many hoped they would have been?

Thanks, good overview!

Awesome breakdown

Yeah, headless is the right word. You'd have to lack a head if you consider a crappy, insecure website better than an actual real app. Experiment in your free time. Don't spread malware while you're working.
