6. Appvs.web —ownersperspective
- Apps retain & engage users better
- Apps monetize better than web
- Replicating website to app doesn’t
really provide enough value for
end-users
- Apps have a barrier because of the
installation. And getting
installations costs money…
- Your app needs to make sense and
provide VALUE
7. Appvs.web —developerperspective
- Flow over structure
- Less details in one view
- User experience perceived
differently
- Expected instant feedback from the
application, reduced loading
- Click - send - response model isn’t
normally enough, requires little
different thinking
8. Why to movefromwebdevtomobile?
- Pays better, higher demand
- Consumers are in the mobile
- Bigger, more interesting projects
- Wider skill set gives you more
options
- You can leverage your existing
skills for web

JavaScriptCore
“While both environments are very similar, you may end up hitting some
inconsistencies. We're likely going to experiment with other JS engines in the
future, so it's best to avoid relying on specifics of any runtime.”

Updates
“Your project will have tons of dependencies, let’s hope they
all work after the major mobile OS update … “
