PROMISES OF HTML5
REALITIES OF HTML5
"CAN HTML5 COMPETE WITH NATIVE?"

LACK OF APIS!
!
“63% of HTML5 mobile developers go direct to browser when developing a mobile website or app. The browser is the most popular route to the mobile market. Yet 61% of Android apps (US) cannot be implemented via the mobile browser due to lack of APIs.”
developereconomics.com/downloads/can-html5-compete-native/
NO FIRST CLASS CITIZEN STATE
“37% of Android apps could be implemented using HTML5 via the Mobile browser, 49% via Phonegap, 63% via Appcelerator and 98% via Firefox OS.”

DIFFERENT GOALS…
NATIVE APPS WEB APPS / SITESProvide the best experience in a defined environment.
Reach the largest amount of users, regardless of location, technical environment or ability.
FIXED IN A CURRENT STATE.FIERCELY FLEXIBLE AND ADAPTING
DIFFERENT APPROACHES…NATIVE ENVIRONMENTS THE WEB
Innovate with closed, patented technology and secret features to gain advantage over competitors.
Use browser maker innovation to agree on standards, stay backwards compatible and vendor independent.
QUICK RESULTS, NO VISIBILITY, CONSTANT REPLACEMENT
HIGH VISIBILITY, CONSENSUS AND MAINTAINABILITY.
For an HTML5 solution to be as good as a native implementation, it would only have to work on one browser, on one operating system, on one defined piece of hardware in a fixed specification. !!
This is against everything the web stands for and not what HTML was invented for…
WORRYING TRENDS…
