    and I wrote a nice article-ish piece myself, trying to get above "I want my walled garden" and "everybody hates pwa" comments you find under those links above...

    but I guess you had your reasons!

  • caniuse

    Raw browser/feature support data from caniuse.com

  • https://caniuse.com/?search=web%20bluetooth

    which might be great because you have the choice...

    and you can use open source chromium or brave (like the jvm to run cross platform java) to run web apps seemlessly that need web bluetooth or such but use safari or firefox for personal use if you find them more secure

    I mean using chromium engine as the running environment where chromium only ever runs special trusted web domains and never goes to other "malicious" web domains that may fuck up iOS as Apple claims would be still a secure choice

    like you will not download spyware from Apple Store because you are an adult not because Apple can protect you there

    the writers are mathematicians I guess, russian minimalists... I remember I checked their site and it did not seem to use bloated stuff

    compiled native UX code may be less kb than minimized js but actually I have never seen comparisons and I do not know much about UX programming in java, c++, android-java or swift or the like

    however, a website can dynamically load (can, 99% do not make use of it) just in time what you need (or as a compromose, preload the next possible steps)... UX code, app code anything

    you can make the client download always the very necessary code on its user journey... even UX code, app code...

    what I find better in native is the built in bot protection :)
