"The second big chunk we are struggling with is operability, runtime diagnostics information. ...there aren’t as many great tools to support that, as well."
Could be me but looks like there is an oppertunity for professional HTML5 performance and bug-tracking tools.
Are HTML5 web apps still viewed as wise first move into mobile app development? We're seeing companies consistently move from web to native... but generally only after hitting some performance barrier. Switching to native then seems to be like any other optimisation. So even if the web performance barely improves, does developing for web first still make sense (platform independence, rapid iterations etc) or should w…
