I believe everyone is familiar with the WeChat applet. It has the advantages of relatively small memory usage, relatively complete functions in all aspects, and relatively cheap development costs. When it comes to these people, it is easy to confuse the applet with H5, and many people even think that The applet is H5, but in essence there is still a big difference between the two. The following article will introduce to you the difference between H5 and applets. It has certain reference value. Friends in need can refer to it. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
There are actually many differences between H5 and applets, which we can look at from the following four aspects:
1. Different operating environments
H5 can only be started with the help of a browser, but although the applet contains H5 technology, it is different from H5 in terms of operating environment. It can run based on a parser, combined with a custom development language standard, its performance has made great progress . To put it simply, friends can open the H5 webpage with a browser, and open the applet with the WeChat platform.
2. Different costs
In terms of development, many companies use various development software to develop for H5, and the customization is outstanding. However, this kind of development needs to be realized by combining various technologies, so it is relatively complicated and the cost of development is relatively high. However, small programs are different. The development can be realized completely with the help of officially downloaded development tools, and the price of small program development is relatively low.
3. Different system-level permissions
From the perspective of the program itself, this small program can get more system permissions, but it is different for H5, the permissions are very low. It is very simple to give a few examples, such as the current state of the network, and even some data cache applications, etc., can be connected with the applet.
4. Different running status
Nowadays, people always emphasize humanization and high user experience, so this point is preempted by small programs. You know, compared to H5, this small program has a smoother usage speed.
Many customers who have used Mini Programs and H5 are very impressed. The opening speed of the former is much faster, and the gap between the two can be tested with some software.
For example, if we open H5, it is equivalent to opening a webpage, and the page needs to be loaded, so the opening speed is relatively slow.
But it is different for small programs. The application runs entirely through WeChat, and it can be opened directly without any operations like loading a browser. In addition, switching between H5 pages also takes time, but the applet does not have to worry about these difficulties.
