Ayush Newatia's wroclove.rb 2023 talk 'Native apps are dead, long live native apps' argues that hybrid apps have a bad reputation (a 'tethered cat' dating back to Mark Zuckerberg's 2012 HTML5 quote and tools like Cordova/React Native) but that mobile JavaScript performance and tools like Hotwire's Turbo Native now make hybrid a compelling choice. He explains the web-to-native bridge, recommends separate iOS/Android code bases, and shows how HEY, Basecamp, and the BBC Sport app validate the approach.
