To me this article suggests that the market is really looking for a viable cross-platform development environment. Clearly Xamarin isn't hitting ask the right notes or it would be exploding. I suspect that something like Meteor on mobile might just be what explodes. In fact Meteor on mobile could be even bigger than Meteor in the web space. Imagine how happy employers would be to simplify, and rather than hiring separate highly specialized developers, simply hire those with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Meteor skill sets. And theoretically they'd need less developers because the same code base would run on both iOS and Android. Personally I'd lay money this is where we'll see the market move in the next five years. Sure, graphics intensive games and such will continue to be native-only, but there's a huge swath of applications which could run exceptionally well on a platform like Meteor on mobile.
