Three Distinct Types of Web Apps
Native App
A native app is designed specifically for a particular operating system, such as Android or iOS. It utilizes cutting-edge technologies like GPS for functionality. These apps are coded in a specific programming language and rely primarily on code execution.
Web App
Web apps resemble native applications in many aspects but are essentially websites. They are accessed through a browser and typically built using HTML5. Users initially access them like any other webpage by navigating to a specific URL. They have the option to “install” them on their home screen by bookmarking the page.
Hybrid App
Hybrid apps are essentially web apps wrapped in a native programming language. The development process for hybrid apps mirrors that of websites. Various frameworks are available for building hybrid apps.
