Is the future of (most) software to run as a web app?
With OS Sonoma, Apple will finally allow users to save website and Progressive Web Apps from Safari, and have them accessible form the browser. Although it's nothing new (and possible to do with other browsers), the fact that Apple is not fighting against them a strong signal imo. As a fairly new FE dev, I wonder whether we're going towards a direction where native apps will become less common, in favor of PWAs or similars. Or, to ask it differently: what are the advantages of developing native apps nowadays? Sure performance is a big argument atm, but will we get to a point where the difference is negligible? If so, what then?
