I'm available... and semi-actively looking... ;-) But I'm not cheap. That said, I provide great value.

I've been writing web based applications for about 20 years now. It's a lot better than it was in the late 90's and early 2000's, so stop bitching or get off the lawn. (sarcasm) Seriously though, I'd much rather deal with webpack, babel, react, redux and the like than angular 1&2 (just feels like a decade old solution now), and heaven forbid having to ever look at an <ILayer> again, or breaking up forms dynamically in the v4 browsers.

Yes, there are a few features not broadly supported, but there is also tooling that makes web dev as good, and in some ways better than app dev (though less than natural, and all out performance on a complex app is hard)... all of that said, it's a VERY valid option for many/most sites/applications.

But do you provide an amount of value that offsets the cost of two or three completely-adequate devs working in parallel on mobile apps? ;)

That's the killer.
