Panel debate: Day 2
summary
Progressive web apps win concrete scrutiny: background geolocation is not a thing yet so a web app plus a thin native layer is recommended for tracking; Ionic’s move to compiled web components yields dramatic size and speed gains—Ionic compiled components are six to eight times faster—and more teams adopt component compilers (Stencil, Svelte). Payments move forward with the web payments API enables seamless checkout. Feature flags and testing in production enable rapid rollouts; a native editor experiment fails, prompting a pivot.
