Trying to turn native apps into template-styled web apps is just backwards; you're discarding the fine attention to detail, typography, pixel-positioning, scaling animations, etc, that can make native apps so great.
This isn't an all-or-none situation. You lose none of the fidelity of native development, it's just an abstraction of code to markup. It's all natively executed using native APIs. Typography, absolute pixel postions, animation, and much more is all there.
