No, what you are doing is likely not that complex and just a series of forms and buttons, which jqm is fine for. If you are doing anything truly interface heavy and complex, the hard parts either having nothing to do with jqm or can't be done in jqm smoothly.

And your single codebase likely has a UI and ux that feels wrong on all platforms.

(I built two of the largest US banks mobile apps using Yui and jqm. )

Do you talk like this in real life to people? If I told you about an app I was making, you would tell me its garbage, then brag about what you built?

Unless you've actually been in my environment and used my app that we've been developing straight for the past year, kindly fuck off.

unless you actually have a product to show, it's his word against yours. Devs always brag about how fast their html apps are, these "fast" apps are nowhere to be seen, or do very little things that require performance.

It's my word against his, I'm the developer, I know what I'm making. I have no problem in him not believing me. The problem is disbelief and then commenting on it, which is fruitless as I'm not in a position to preview my app to the public, nor is he in any position to comment on an application he hasn't seen or used.

Take my experience for what it's worth, if it's worth nothing then skip me.
