NEEDED TO EXPAND HTML5

LOTS OF MISSING APISLOTS OF MISSING APIS

LET’S TRY TO DO IT IN WEBKIT?

My sense is that WebKit should not implement

calendar or the other related device APIs at this

time. Instead, we should address these use cases

using the more extensible, web-friendly URL-

based approach. (1)

TURNING POINTTURNING POINT

Then… why HTML5 has not happened?

• Poor performance of mobile browsers (WebKit) compared to native apps in iOS or Android (Apple and Google are main contributors to WebKit and are not incentivize to improve it)

• Lack of offline capabilities for Web apps (we cannot assume always on connectivity on mobile)

• Lack of APIs to access device resources (GPS, Camera, commsstack, device sensors, etc)

• Lack of powerful authoring and development tools

• Lack of discoverability tools for users and monetization model for developers (i.e. AppStores) compared to native platforms
