Desktop Applications
Desktop apps and web apps have their own set of benefits and drawbacks, and the right choice for your project will depend on a variety of factors.

Desktop

  • Local Resources

    Desktop apps are installed locally on a user's device, which means that they have access to all of the resources of that device. This can be useful if your app requires access to certain hardware or software that may not be available on the web.

  • Offline Capabilities

    Desktop apps can be used offline, which is a major advantage in certain situations. For example, if your app is going to be used in areas with unreliable or non-existent internet connectivity, a desktop app would be the better choice.

  • Performance

    Desktop apps can be used offline, which is a major advantage in certain situations. For example, if your app is going to be used in areas with unreliable or non-existent internet connectivity, a desktop app would be the better choice.

  • Integration

    Desktop apps can integrate more closely with the operating system, which can make them more convenient for users. For example, they can have their own menu items in the system tray or have access to certain system APIs.

Web

  • Cross-Platform Compatibility

    Web apps are accessed through a web browser, which means that they can be used on any device with a modern browser. This makes them a good choice if you want your app to be used on multiple platforms, such as Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android.

  • Deployment

    Web apps are much easier to deploy than desktop apps. All you need to do is upload your app to a web server and it's available to users immediately. With a desktop app, you'll need to create installers and go through a more complex distribution process.

  • Automatic Updates

    Web apps can be updated automatically, which means that users always have access to the latest version of your app. With a desktop app, you'll need to create and distribute updates manually.

  • Accessibility

    Web apps are accessible from any device with a web browser, which makes them more convenient for users. They don't have to go through the process of installing an app on their device, and they can access the app from any location.

There are several technologies that allow developers to build native applications for
Windows, Mac, and Linux, as well as hybrid applications that can run on multiple platforms.
