"Any number of" and "standard mobile widgets" makes for an oxymoron.

As for working with designers, no, I'm not a designer, but I find that implementing designs in iOS and Android native tools is far easier than attempting to jimmy HTML+CSS into implementing the behavior and layout as provided by a designer.

In the world of views, I can simply position them where I want and apply arbitrary logic to how they move, scale, etc. This makes it tremendously easier to implement complex designs than straight HTML/CSS.
