Native app performance is still much higher than the html-based app?

0

I'm in doubt about which framework / language to use to start application development. From what I've read so far, I'm between using Ionic and Xamarin .

Everywhere I read the great advantage of Ionic is to be free, but now Xamarin is also free, so in that they are the same. Another issue that emphasizes a lot is that native app has better performance than html based app, but just as the Xamarin issue gets paid, it may have changed that nowadays. About interface vi that now parts of CSS3 are GPU-accelerated .

  • Is the overall performance of native apps still better?
  • Is the native apps interface still perceptibly more responsive?
  • Is the performance of any of these types of apps more influenced by the size or complexity of the project?

Performance

I recommend using Google IDE to develop APPs for android, the performance of a native APP will always be higher. Such an IDE usually works with compilation and the end result "is the same" as a native APP with some more processes, ie, lower performance.

Responsive

It depends on your project, in general the result is the same, but still a native app handles more easily with resolution changes.

Performance by size / complexity

It depends on the way that Ionic for example compiles the app, obviously it will not be smaller than a native APP because it should import part of the core of the program into the application, consequently it gets bigger or "heavy" to run.

General Considerations

You will have some technical limitations for relying on third-party (non-original) applications to develop since you can not have 100% freedom on a mobile device using only HTML, JavaScript and CSS3.
