Web apps are different from websites. The major difference is that a web app can be a small part
                  of a website that provides a particular functionality. On the other hand, a website can contain
                  many Web apps.
                  Some examples of  Web  apps  are  OLX,  Flipkart,  and
                  Pinterest.

                  Hybrid Apps

                  The app that is created by combining the features of a native app and a web app is called a
                  hybrid app. Similar to native apps, hybrid apps are developed for a specific platform and deployed
                  on the app store. You need to install the hybrid app before using it on your mobile.
                  Nowadays, developers use development tools to package the code of the hybrid app with a
                  browser to make it as a native app. In this way, hybrid apps become cross-platform, which means
                  that the same code can be run on multiple platforms. This technique saves the development time
                  and cost also.

                  Some  examples  of hybrid apps are  Instagram,  Gmail,
                  and X.
                     CATEGORIES OF APPS

                  Apps have become an essential part of our daily lives. People now use their mobile phones for a
                  variety of activities such as communication, education, and entertainment. This growing demand

                  like attention and focus. Some gaming apps are designed to make learning fun for children by
                  integrating educational elements into gameplay. Additionally, many games allow players to
                  connect with friends, compete, and share their scores on social media.
