HTML/CSS based native interfaces are some of the hardest to use, least reliable, least accessible, least robust interfaces I encounter; The demo interfaces on their website all fit into the unusable pot.

I admit most/all of the interfaces I've personal used are using electron/webkit/ie to render which are all quite bloated. Is this different? It's not entirely clear and would be an important differentiator.

I still don't understand the draw though. The best native apps look and behave natively; using a platform like this prevents that or just makes it harder to accomplish. Using such a platform seems like it's entirely developer-focused and not-at-all user focused, which is a shame.
