When looking at the existing JavaScript solutions for building native iOS and Android apps, it's a fact that they're powerful and can extremely reduce the amount of application development time. On the other side it's also clear that they come with drawbacks and limitations. It depends heavily on a project's requirements and of course on the developer skills and sensibilities.
App performance and UI responsiveness are the main aspects when it comes to the question of using a JavaScript solution or not (native apps with a single C# code base can be realized with Xamarin). It should be clear that WebView wrapper approaches will never reach native-quality UI performance. So developers should start with a proof of concept when choosing a HTML-based WebView solution: mastering dynamic data and optimizing form controls are non-trivial tasks.
