But then we wouldn't have the ability to build cross platform apps in HTML/CSS/JS. I'm working on an app that is built on Ionic (packages app for various platforms) and Electron (primary deployment model for desktop utilized by Ionic) that would not be practical if we were stuck on a server side rendering paradigm.

I can use HTML/CSS/JS skills (and Angular) to build a serious business application that runs anywhere and looks the same on each platform (or morphs to the platform UI if I care about that).
