Bottom line today if you can't deliver your app on the web only, you will most likely end up at best with:

- An Electron (Desktop) app

- An React Native Mobile app (that needs to be delivered through both Google & Apple proprietary channels)

Whether you loved or hated Java the language, it is hard to deny we ended up in a terrible place:

- We lost all freedom on mobile

- We rely way too much on Blink & Webkit

- We traded Java for Javascript

- It's still relatively slow

- We haven't fixed the security problem on desktop

- Devs now have to manage a lot more technologies & moving parts
