Hybrid applications
Native hosted web applications (also known as hybrid applications) are another popular choice for (especially mobile) developers. In this architecture, a responsive web application would be hosted on a thin native harness on the target platform. The native web container would also be responsible for providing access to the web runtime on native platform APIs. These hybrid applications wouldn't even need to be packaged as application packages, but as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) so that users can access them right from their web browsers. While the development resources are even more efficiently used than the native cross-platform framework approach, this type of application is generally prone to performance issues.
