Desktop/web app development vs. mobile app development

[Emme Developer]

Hi to all, come back from different years 3 years ago i started to develop in a company as Frontend developer (angular, css, html and others pretty stuff), and 5 months ago i switched in backend team as .net developer (c# in a microservices architecture). I really enjoy my team and what i'm doing, I'm learning a lot of things and how to make more and more clean code, testing and others stuff.. but sometimes i miss mobile development and great using of b4x products, developing application in easier way and mobile ux design. There are a lot of nice things i want to try, and different ideas i want to develop. Hope a day i'll find free time and come to develop with b4a
Do you prefer to develop for mobile environment or web/desktop?

Add the option: "I don't want to develop anymore" and I vote it ?

Do you prefer to develop for mobile environment or web/desktip?

Here is a subliminal message that prompts you to vote for the desktop option.

DeskTIP

Mobile app's have never really piqued my interest enough to make me want to write any.
Probably the reason why I don't use any of the cross platform stuff too, I don't need it to run on a phone, it's just excess code.

The good thing with B4X is that if you write a B4XPages app, you get the both of them (ok, not the web version... but just wait for B4XPages 2.0 and you will see)

you get the both of them (ok, not the web version

In fact, the second option should be divided into several parts, because one thing is a "pure" desktop application, another is one for web-browser-pc, another is a PWA and different is a server application without UI but still for "desktop", ...

yes of course, but there are some reasons that don't allow you to use b4x in every situation. B4x products are great, but like other things, we have to choose the best environment that allows us to achieve our goals

Yeah, the aim of the survey is not to understand if you can use b4x to develop desktop and what it can do, it was more a general discourse on preferring to develop for mobile or desktop (web, script or other)

B4x products are great, but like other things, we have to choose the best environment that allows us to achieve our goals

and you choose:

B4X for mobile (Android and/or iOS)
B4X for desktop
B4X for server (no UI)
B4X-BANano for Web

In short, B4X anyway (not anywhere ?)


P.S.
I always forget to add B4X (B4R) for those gizmos (Arduino & C.)

Desktop and Web should be separated. I hope I can explore in Single Board Computer like Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
