Have I got news for you?! You can choose exactly what you want to see.

There's a very cool "App Store" on your iPhone right now. Somebody in marketing named it "Safari" -- IKR! pfft; -- Safari is one of the best App Stores out there. It has this neat interface called "URLs" where you "search" for Apps and apparently they run on this HTML5 voodoo magic; which is a set of open standards, run by the open committees (W3C); and here's the best part -- JavaScript! Yes! No more pesky Xcode tooling and Objective C and Swift and C++. Bleh!

You can even hit the share button then 'add to home screen' if you want easy access to the site without the URL bar (at least for PWAs; regular sites will just open a safari tab).

I know this is a joke comment, but isn’t JavaScript supposed to be the joke language here on HN, not Objective-C/Swift?
