  • The simplicity and complexity of the web.
    • It used to be just HTML

    • And CSS
  • And million libraries and frameworks.
  • Markup as a way for building UIs.
    • WPF
  • Server side vs client side (the loop)
  • Web technologies in non-web scenarios:
    • FirefoxOS
    • NodeJS Desktop applications (using Node-Webkit https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit)
    • Example: https://www.mapbox.com/tilemill/ I've used this desktop application and liked it, and a week later discovered that it's a NodeJS app.
  • Browsers as Operating Systems:
    • Chromebooks
    • FirefoxOS
  • Single-page applications (SPA) as a way to blur the lines between web applications and desktop applications.
