It’s interesting that a lot of IT projects are considered as failures even though the development teams were able to submit the output on time and within budget.

The story of hybrid application development is a never-ending one. Each framework has to continuously strive and innovate to remain relevant, and the discussion of which framework to use is a question often asked. Most hybrid applications are built using a combination of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. These applications can range from WebView-based solutions (such as Cordova/PhoneGap) to ones that aren’t actually “hybrid”, but run natively on device (such as NativeScript ).
