HTML5 vs. Native

The mobile scene has greatly evolved over the last 10 years; new operating systems and app stores have materialised and flipped on its head the existent postulates on information consumption on the go. We are more connected, less private and data hungrier than ever before - not to mention the higher standards.
HTML5 has now matured as the ubiquitous platform for the web and cannot be dismissed any longer as an incomplete solution for mobile. On the other hand, native apps can offer better performance, greater engagement and lucrative ecosystem.
Which one shall we use? There is only one right answer...

45. Learn from big players So while utilizing web technology has allowed us to support more than 500 million people using Facebook on more than 7000 supported devices, we realized that when it comes to platforms like iOS, people expect a fast, reliable experience and our iOS app was falling short. Now that our mobile services had breadth, we wanted depth. So, we rewrote Facebook for iOS from the ground up (I really did open up Xcode and click "New Project") with a focus on quality and leveraging the advances that have been made in iOS development. https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-engineering/under- the-hood-rebuilding-facebook-for-ios/10151036091753920
