Focus On: WebApp vs Native, Performances

11.13.2012

In a bit less than a month, Applidium opens its doors! You’re invited to one of our Focus On, our internal trainings. We will present a detailed analysis of native applications’ performances, compared to web applications.

The two technologies have been debated for years mainly on cost, functional or portability concerns but not that much on performances.

The last example of performance issue is well-known: the Facebook app. As a reminder, here is the quote of Mark Zuckerberg when he announced his company would switch back to a full-native app: “When I’m introspective about the last few years I think the biggest mistake that we made, as a company, is betting too much on HTML5 as opposed to native… because it just wasn’t there. And it’s not that HTML5 is bad. I’m actually, on long-term, really excited about it.”

The Focus On will be presented by two of our developers. They will compare the two technologies focusing on performances, illustrated with benchmarks and a few commonly used algorithms. Slides will be in English but speech in French.

It will take place on Tuesday, December 11th at 7:00 PM, in our Paris office (17 rue du faubourg du Temple, Paris, France). There are few seats and limited room so… first-come, first-served!

See you there!
