laxx:Phonegap is crap on steriods. It cant be used for all apps and its performance suffers in some apps. I have used both approaches. I only use phonegap on cheap budget apps. If client can afford native i always recommend that. 1 Like |

What do you guys mean by Native, like using NDK for C++ apps on android instead of basic SDK apps? Or native as in run on the system and not via some browser? in which case the SDK android apps will also count as native and so as any other java app or VM based app |

Borwe:Native means the official SDK for the platform, whether it be NDK or SDK for android or Objective C (IOS SDK),or Blackberry Java,Blackberry 10 SDK, Blackberry Webworks is not native(It uses a webkit(browser) as runtime)). etc. |

We are talking more about devices. For example an Android device has the Android SDK(native) made by Android/Google themselves. But web developers can use HTML5, css and Javascript and use something like Phonegap(not native) made by Adobe to build apps for it. Similarly a BBOS phone, for example, has the BlackBerry Java SDK (native) made by BlackBerry themselves. But web developers can decide to use Webworks (HTML5, CSS and Javascript). The difference is RIM actually created a platform that makes it easier to build apps using HTML5 and this platform is Webworks. But Webworks still uses Cordova/Phonegap by Adobe. BlackBerry further created Cordova/Phonegap plugins like a boy. is to make our Webworks apps look more like native apps. Borwe: |
