Facebook was pouring resources into their HTML5 mobile apps ten years ago. I’m not saying web apps on mobile feel native now by any means, but I don’t think that’s a good example of a big company trying and failing anymore.



But what makes you think html+js+css performance have improved enough over native in the subsequent years where this isn’t relevant?


The Facebook html5 example predates react-native and all the other under-the-hood features and apps powered-by-JS that people don’t notice now.
