It is supposed to mean that you use software that lets you write a program one time for multiple kinds of computers/phones/tablets. For example you might write a video game using the Unity system or Cocos3dx.Is it better than the native one, especially in case of business?
I've heard that run everywhere song a lot over the years. The java language was going to do that, for example. It never seems to work in practice.It is supposed to mean that you use software that lets you write a program one time for multiple kinds of computers/phones/tablets.

This is different from native coding. First native code takes advantage of the features of a specific group of devices, so it does not work on devices which lack the same features. Secondly native code is often faster though not always faster.
Java appeared. There was a public demonstration at my local library which did indeed claim it would make possible write once run everywhere. Theoretically it should still be possible, but it goes against the grain of manufacturers. They must compete to gain market share. Yes they want to benefit from hybrid software and a greater pool of developers, but at the same time they want to add features no one else has. In the end yes you can write a java program which runs anywhere, but it is somewhat limited and feature poor if it runs on everything. You have to splice it with system specific features or your program will be limited.I've heard that run everywhere song a lot over the years. The java language was going to do that, for example.
