So, I’m going to fill you in on something. My snark level is at max this morning, so forgive me a bit if you can.

The desktop app is dead. There is only the web app. Remember all those complex desktop apps that existed? They are all web apps now, and what would have been a new desktop app will become a new web app.

The only other app game in town is mobile, and people still use web app technology to build that even.

Enjoy your UIs, because they ain’t going anywhere, ever. There is no more ‘why’ in this question.
