I was about to post a comment on you not mentioning NativeScript. Seems to be a competitor to Xamarin, but it uses Javascript instead of C# so should be easier if you already know JS. Looking forward to your video on this!
Great Video however I was a bit let down because you missed out NativeScript. NativeScript is brilliant, it is the biggest competitor to React Native however NativeScript is well documented and is easier to get up and running. I look forward to your video on this.
If you will make a app like Snapchat, with camera and filters, i don't recommend NativeScript. He's less popular and don't have much plugins to specifics tasks. I try to build an app like that and it was a failure, React Native is superior in these points and others.
Could you give us a short vid to show how to create an icon pointing to a web app? Also, in thinking about it, I don't really see the issue of having to use a browser. All platforms have them and they are mainly a rendering engine, right? I would also guess that a hybrid app has a browser in there somewhere. Just musing. . .
In the video he's talking about icons on your cellphone's desktop, I'm not sure about iPhone, but on Android, if you're using Google Chrome as a browser, just click/touch the icon for more options on your top right corner (the 3 vertical dots) and choose Add to Home screen from the menu, it'll send the current website to your desktop. As always, great video!
On iOS using Chrome for example, you can bookmark websites to your home screen, in doing so it will create an image of the website and save it to your home screen. Clicking this icon on your home screen will now open up Chrome and go directly to that website.
I recently build a hybrid app with Ionic 2, and my experience with it was pretty good! If you know Angular, you know Ionic, which was really cool for me!
Another advantage of hybrid app is there are tons of code snippet on the internet that you can copy & paste or modify to use in your project .Bad point many native app developers hate you.
It seems like you didnt research much about this technologies 😥😥😥 you missed a lot, as a mobile app dev for 5 years now. I used native more than others. It actually depends on the project if you can use hybrid for fast deployment then you can do so. But for some hardware interactive app, it is really better to use native. And correct me if im wrong, you forgot to mention Kotlin. Xamarin uses C#.
That was obvious when he said javascript is easy and java is difficult that he didn't do any research.. he want to say fighting a dinosaur is easy than fighting a newly born puppy, again low on research when claimed web programmers comes cheap than app developers. With web being everywhere from browsers to webview in apps, obviously they can't come cheap.
So... late last night I was looking at mid 90's Zoo York videos of skateboarders that used to hang around washington square park and Harold Hunter vids....when I see Traversy Media commenting on how the area has now changed.... Didn't know you were a skater! That aside, thanks for the hybrid app overview!
every time I need to have an insight for something I`d rather check first if Traversy Media has something uploaded before trying to find any other new sources.
I was going to point out exactly this, progressive web apps solves the problem with the Icon, and also allows the web app to work offline which is a great disadvantage if you don't use service workers.
PWA's are being listed in windows store/soon to be, and play is considering adding them too(though i'm pretty sure you can grab the apk that the pwa now generates and list it yourself). As for IOS, it may be getting there slowly as they are now marked as in development for Service workers for safari, so thats a start.
@@lucyegan82 Won't be backwards compatible though. Why not instead use a cross platform native framework, gives you more control and is more fun. In my opinion people who develop for mobile should in any case learn the underlying platforms.
@@xpopcornx1747 fun is the last word I would use, atleast for react native, we use it at work for 1 app and it's the worst thing ever. Also if your worrying about older devices they can always fall back to the browser hence the progressive part.
@@lucyegan82 As a mobile dev I am simply not nearly as interested in making web apps as I am native mobile. Have not used React Native but with Xamarin you use much of the same api as native development only with c# wrappers, unless it's Xamarin.Forms which has its own layer on top. Still this is more interesting to me than making web apps as it is something that runs natively on the device. I think it is important to differentiate mobile developers and web developers because these are usually not the same people.
Great, I love your tutorials and you are doing excellent. My humble suggestion is if you could create tutorials on creating mobile apps using android studio.
It seems to me there is a huge advantage for web apps in secure environments. When I worked for the Federal Government I had a govt laptop, but I was not an admin. Generally I couldn't install apps. Not sure if the Windows store would have allowed me to "install" a hybrid app or a pure app on my machine. A web only "app" wouldn't have this issue. Interestingly my govt phone (Galaxy S5) was less restrictive. I installed a number of apps from the AppStore, no problem.
Nativescript is not "limited" to Angular. In fact, you can go vanilla JS, "vanilla" TypeScript or on top of a number of different frameworks. Angular is basically the first that comes to mind, but there's nothing to prevent using others and I've seen people working with Preact or VueJS along with Nativescript
gonzo191 I just think a lot of you don't know how good blackberry &a windows phone were. They worked great. Platform & security top notch. For black not windows. You all are just not old enough to know. Or sent enough time with to see pros and cons. If supported I would take either over android any day. But big $ couldn't have that.
I watch your videos Every day and I really want to take your Mega Mobile development course. I checked out the link you provided on CZcams and it says the course is no longer available. Please how can I get the course?
HI Brad , can you advise or make a video on PROGRAMMING FRAMEWORKS , I mean what components does a framework rely on or need . The reason I ask is because I was trying to learn c++ but am struggling with what types of compilers I need for even how to install one .... this would really be helpful ...thanks man !
ok. Well. Can you make video again on the topic of "how to develop hybrid app", with complete project from start to the end. e.g., i want to develop taxi booking system as same as Careem taxi app. to facilitate the public by using my app. Can you help me in this matter please??????......
You are the man!! thank you for your effort short video but very handful knowledge for the ones who just want to understand the differences . Thank you again .
Hi! Thanks for the videos! I was wondering what your thoughts are on replacing flexbox and bootstrap with CSS grids. Can you make a video if you have had any experiences with CSS grids in your job?(I know they only recently became supported on all browsers)
What an Outstanding video and content as well. I found this an excess of informatics. I was looking for it. I might want to suggest that if it's not too much trouble, continue to share such kind of data. If potential, Thanks.
React Native should go under Native apps, not Hybrid. Taken from React's docs: `With React Native, you don't build a “mobile web app”, an “HTML5 app”, or a “hybrid app”. You build a real mobile app that's indistinguishable from an app built using Objective-C or Java. React Native uses the same fundamental UI building blocks as regular iOS and Android apps. You just put those building blocks together using JavaScript and React.`
Another disadventage of a web and hybrid apps is a less energy saving then native app, because count of instructions that processor handle is more and web apps use more resources in total
Great overview, Brad! I've heard of React Native and have considered learning it alongside React after finishing your Angular 4 video, however I was also tempted to learn Kotlin (a replacement to Java for Android SDK) to dip my toes into mobile development. However I think you explained in a very succinct manner both from a student's standpoint (i.e. what to learn) and a business's perspective on what the best tools to learn would be (in this case, going from Hybrid apps as the best "bang for your buck").
Nativescript is dope. Using it at work right now. Very solid API and set of core modules, and they even let you write your own custom typescript/javascript if you need to reach out to a native component that is not yet supported through their core modules
Can you make the video how to create a android app which has few pages, like a website. I mean what ever in our website convert to android app, backend from website, frontend new design for app.
I really like your videos in fact I started watching a tutorial videos of yours some day ago. I was was curious about this topic you bring on now and I waited and have to say that I disagree about web apps disadvantages the only disadvantage is that you can not post it on any app store. A web app is fast, however it may be slow if you have a slow internet connection. Mobile browsers are blazing fast. Also you can pin any web app start url on your phone screen. Recently there appeared new APIs for mobile web developers and with that you are abble to access almost every aspect of your phone eg geo location, orientation, is it charging and many more.
Hi Brad, you are amazing! I checked your tutorial on eduonix using your link at the end of the clip and do I need to learn JavaScript first before taking on the course or is it covered in it. Thanks
cool overview! although, react native is not really a hybrid app though, it just generates components from xcode and android studio which actually what you have at the end is a native app whilst coding kind of in javascript
I just develop my own frame in HTML-CSS-JS-AJAX-PHP, I would like to be fast delevering on small audience. I rather prefer to stick to the object model, object-method-property, an application through a side menu, list objects available, then sub-menu listing methods, then trigered process local setted properties. Interface is split in 3 areas, Header-SideMenu-Main-Footer and 10 prestored mains this is sufficient even for the more demanding sites.
Just curious if you can help me with this. I'm kind of at a loss what to do at this point. I have a website on Wordpress and used a plugin called AppPresser to make an app. We have had the app in the app stores but recently Google Play changed it's Privacy Policy. The app was rejected and sent this warning: We don’t allow apps whose primary purpose is to provide a webview of a website, regardless of ownership, or to aggregate content that does not belong to the developer. To resolve this issue, please remove violating content and resubmit your app. Is this because the app looks too much like the website? We also have links that open up in a web browser, such as the online catalog, donate, and social media.
From a Product Owner hiring perspective, what could be the major difference between Mobile App and Web Development App? Let's say i am hiring a Product Owner, who has more experience with web apps than mobile apps, what should i be concerned about? and or what that Product Owner should be aware of?
Hey! Thanks for the video. I just want to point out that on iOS, you can actually access any website with an icon on the home screen: Safari provides an option for that.

People talk about how languages like Java and Swift and Kotlin are so much harder than web development languages. I find it quite the opposite. I've always hated working with HTML, CSS, JS, etc. and find working with Kotlin and XML much simpler, more intuitive, and straightforward than anything I've ever done with web development.
Nativescript is also definitely something to look into - www.nativescript.org/
I will be researching this hard to make a video on it

"the 4 people that use blackberry and windows phones"
died.
I'm still using windows phone (MS 535). hehehe
They did not. They switched. haha
A year later.... are there still 4? :)
I use Microsoft Lumia 950, but we are going extinct. LOL
I'm using BlackBerry priv , itsss awesome
Hindsight: You actually can have a website as an icon on the home screen. Scratch that disadvantage :) Thanks for watching!
Traversy Media but that'll still require a web browser. So let's unscratch 😃
I just meant that particular point of not being able to have the icon on the home screen. Yes running in a web browser sucks
Could you give us a short vid to show how to create an icon pointing to a web app? Also, in thinking about it, I don't really see the issue of having to use a browser. All platforms have them and they are mainly a rendering engine, right? I would also guess that a hybrid app has a browser in there somewhere. Just musing. . .

The way u explained is flawless!! you are a great tutor.
thank you man!

This information is amazing. Thank you for taking the time to inform people like me who are clueless about this stuff.
Another advantage of hybrid app is there are tons of code snippet on the internet that you can copy & paste or modify to use in your project .Bad point many native app developers hate you.
please make a 2019 version of this.
Flutter pretty much is added to the list
Kotlin

the fog has been cleared. thank you sincerely
Great! Very useful information. That's very clean and clear explanation delivered perfectly, Thanks for making this video!
yesss. I have waited so long for something like this. Appreciated!

Brilliant Video and really useful information for my Angular exam Friday. Thanks a bunch!
Consistently one of the best on youtube.
What a good example of a hybrid app?
NativeScript is the Angular version of React Native and should be slotted into the 4th type.
which is better in your view?
Depends what you prefer. Angular then go NativeScript, React, then go React Native.
Nativescript is not "limited" to Angular. In fact, you can go vanilla JS, "vanilla" TypeScript or on top of a number of different frameworks. Angular is basically the first that comes to mind, but there's nothing to prevent using others and I've seen people working with Preact or VueJS along with Nativescript
"...the 4 people that use blackberry or windows phones...." hahaha
more like one person for blackberry
Me too, by far my favorite mobile OS. It's too bad that MS dropped the ball so many times with it.
yeah, hahaha

Hi. As far as I know Xamarin doesn't use strictly web technologies (html, css, js) as react native does (jsx), Xamarin uses C#. Great video.
C# is a web technology in that it is used as a server-side language for web apps
Dok Asov Yes C# can be used as a server Side tech with .net but in Xamarin is used to build the client, the app..
Very interesting subject. I think I'll go hybrid from now on... thank you for opening my eyes ☺
Great video and One of the best youtube chanells out there
“The four people that use blackberry & windows phones”
Thank you for a genuine laugh right in the middle of your lecture.
a series on hybrid or xamarin would be pretty good. nice video :)
Great work Brad. I have learned so much from your videos over the past month I just became a Patreon

An interesting overview. If you do a tutorial/series with Xamarin, I'll shout "Yay!" for sure. :-)
Another informative video! Keep going man!
Do you plan to cover PWA as well? In future videos
actually. if I build native app with react native it will work on both indroid and ios , not only on one platform
Thanks for thos video
It helps me a lot in my project
That was great info! Very compact and structured though one false information, Xamarin doesnt use javascript im pretty sure

Hi, Off topic question:
Have you made any video tutorials on OOP design patterns with examples? If not, any plans to make one?
Thank you so much for sharing this useful data! Greatly appreicated
Thank you for this educational piece!!
awesome explanation!
keep up the good work
Excellent explanation.
Another disadventage of a web and hybrid apps is a less energy saving then native app, because count of instructions that processor handle is more and web apps use more resources in total
good point
what does that mean, count of instructions? and what resources do u mean?
So Discord is a hybrid app, right? It's using the Electron framework.

Please make a new version of this Video for 2020
This video really opened my eyes
Brilliant. Thanks a lot Brad.
You can have quick links to web apps on mobile devices so it looks like an app shortcut
"The 4 people that use Blackberry and Windows Phone"... haha.
Great informative video, thanks!
Nativescript is dope. Using it at work right now. Very solid API and set of core modules, and they even let you write your own custom typescript/javascript if you need to reach out to a native component that is not yet supported through their core modules
from where i can learn to create hybrid app using node.js
Read about Electron! Discord is a good example that uses it.
Thank you sir for this session
Can you make the video how to create a android app which has few pages, like a website. I mean what ever in our website convert to android app, backend from website, frontend new design for app.

Is React Native really a full native app?

Awesome video! Thank you
cool overview! although, react native is not really a hybrid app though, it just generates components from xcode and android studio which actually what you have at the end is a native app whilst coding kind of in javascript
Thanks. Yeah, check the slide that says "4th Type". Im talking about React Native, Xamarin, Nativescript, etc. I think these are the future
This video helped alot!!!! Thank you!
thank you so much ! great video ,you just made my life a lot easier !!!
superb demonstration !!!
I just develop my own frame in HTML-CSS-JS-AJAX-PHP, I would like to be fast delevering on small audience. I rather prefer to stick to the object model, object-method-property, an application through a side menu, list objects available, then sub-menu listing methods, then trigered process local setted properties. Interface is split in 3 areas, Header-SideMenu-Main-Footer and 10 prestored mains this is sufficient even for the more demanding sites.
Hmm this is a tough one for me. What if you started already learning swift? Should I continue or drop it to learn hybrid?
Just curious if you can help me with this. I'm kind of at a loss what to do at this point. I have a website on Wordpress and used a plugin called AppPresser to make an app. We have had the app in the app stores but recently Google Play changed it's Privacy Policy.

thank you cleared a lot.
Very Nice Explaination !!!
Thank you Sir for these infos
Hey! Thanks for the video. I just want to point out that on iOS, you can actually access any website with an icon on the home screen: Safari provides an option for that.
Chrome on Android has a similar feature. But a user has to do it manually and might not even know about that feature.
Great and Informative Video!!
Where do applications like VLC, Bandicam or even KeePassXC fit in all of this?
How about Progressive Web App?
nice video. but instead of saying "slower", it would be nice to show benchmark data too for clearer comparison. even on price comparison, showing actual project prices is better than saying cheaper. i enjoyed the video thou
clear explanation, good video
Progressive Web Apps may replace Hybrid Apps in future.
It alreadyis, using it to our advantage where i'm from before much can see it. Love it since massess just copy and rehash.
Not until platforms like iOS are less _hostile_ to web apps.
Is there an updated version of this presentation?
Excellent explanation..! I have One more doubt, can you explain me examples of Native and hybrid mobile applications?
thank you very nice explain.
thumbs up for you (Y)
Very Informative video!!
Looking forward to more videos like this

if the instagram is hybrid app why the update is differ from ios and android device ???
excellent video
great video dude!
