The meaning behind these is pretty blurry between whats considered a website vs an app, it's a spectrum. I consider a web app something that has a similar UI experience to a desktop app, as the word "application" came derived from the desktop.
While I agree with you that a lot of websites overuse javascript and frameworks. Can you tell me what else I'm supposed to use if I'm going to build a desktop class web app without it becoming a huge mess or I having to end up up inventing the same concepts already existing in these frameworks?
Have you tried Crossover? It's a fork Wine with good support for lots of windows games. Very good performance on M1 for lots of games, even in benchmarks the m1 performs is comparable to the highest end windows machines.
