Has the web won on mobile? No. In fact there was a time in which Cordova-like apps were getting very popular, but react-native and then Flutter, Kotlin and Swift have ended that. Or at least that's my impression. react-native is almost like the web still though, but the fact that people are doing react-native and not Cordova must mean something.

Meanwhile, 10 years ago the only ways to do desktop native apps were the old -- very good, but old, with that old feel -- technologies like GTK and so on. Now there are these other things I cited above, and more! It's a renaissance.
