HTML and css are easy All of the constituent parts are easy. It's when you tie it all together that it starts to get complex. There is no doubt there are many more moving parts in a modern web app compared to desktop. I did a few VB projects and I needed know two things, VB6 and a database. Of course we can't go back, enterprises are rightly presenting their systems directly to the customer, you can't do that with a desktop app. None the less it does feel more complex than it needs to be. |

Desktop apps are relatively simple if you only need to target one platform. Both windows and macOS have good options accessible from managed languages. But if you want to do cross platform then the complexity rockets.
