I think the previous author&#x27;s point was more on point without using judgement-loaded words like &quot;toy&quot;. There certainly are definitely classes of applications where sheer computing complexity or responsiveness probably means that we&#x27;re a long way off from using web wrapped applications (eg Electron). High end graphics editing, video editing, and music DAWs certainly qualify in this category.<p>Then again, from what I know, Premiere, Photoshop, and DAWs like Cubase and Logic are straight-up C++ applications, and don&#x27;t even go into Java &#x2F; Qt territory.<p>I would say that something like Google Apps vs Microsoft Office is a lot closer than it used to be. Native-app Excel sheets for instance still have the edge in speed overall, especially for large datasets (say, &gt;10,000 rows) better, and Excel has a pretty significant edge in my opinion for analysis (pivot tables, charts, etc.). Google Sheets however are very capable for a large percentage of documents, with the added benefit of being so much easier to share and collaborate. Neither use case is a &quot;toy&quot; scenario in my opinion.
