great idea, has some limitation thought
because loading local files is prohibited for "security" reasons, stuff like waponez_web (which load data) do not work
stuff like mobileUI demo work.. etc

In my opinion, it is difficult to create an application with a modern look and feel with Purebasic.
Therefore, if performance is not so important, it might be a good idea to build a WebApp and create it as an app, as described above.
Also not to be underestimated, the huge pool of JavaScript freely available libraries and functions that the browser already brings out of the box. With Purebasic you have to build it all yourself or hope that there is a Dll.
And very up-to-date: with Claude & Co you can realize a web project very easily and quickly. With Purebasic it is unfortunately not yet so easy.

The new WebView gadget (in Purebasic) opens up exciting new possibilities.

Hybrid is the new game changer!

For example, I was able to build a recording tool with AI. I can use it to transcribe text live via microphones and, for example, automatically create minutes for meetings.
The whole thing runs under Purebasic in WebView with Javascript. Ingenious!

Disagree on part" on windows you can not find dll"

Windows (and linux) have so many dll and api , you can do ANYTHING , including access to computer hardware usb , specific hardware,acess to hard disk, access ro office acess to logistic application and unnumbeded stuff.
Not technical possible via webbrowser

However there is increased request for webapps /netword host apps , thats prett much obvious
