How competitive is html5 mobile development against native languages?

Question

JavaScript

Interested in how much worse an application built from html5 on android or ios will be compared to native.
It is clear that for complex applications the difference will be very noticeable, but what about not very complex applications?
For example:
1) News application
2) A small service such as a todo list
3) A game (as in html5 they write, for example, some kind of packman or flapbirds =) )
4) Is it possible to do, for example, notifications that will appear at a certain time in a native application, as this happens in todo managers without internet connection?
5) I am also interested in how large the function will be in this case unavailable in html5.
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

About speed: If you have the right architecture for an HTML5 application and all the necessary optimizations, then it will absolutely work!
We are not talking now about 3D, although this is possible!
About the functionality: the use of plugins for the execution of native functions allows you to access any functional device in a mobile phone: camera, telephone line(s), compass, GPS, NFC module, Wi-Fi module, BT module, etc. d.

Answer 2

I think it depends a lot on you. Choose the tasks correctly, and I think even an html5 application will be fine. If some brilliant idea dawned on you, and you want to quickly make an MVP with your own hands, do it on html5, quickly check it and you might even get bored with mobile phones :)

Answer 3

HTML5 is a universal solution. The speed of work on mobile is of course lower than native, but you can use cocoonjs wrappers and others like it. All of the above applies to games.

Answer 4

There are a lot of such applications. It's faster and cheaper. There are much more typesetters than java programmers. Know how to html / css / js - two days and you are already a mobile application developer.
