minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•23 days agoI thought applet came first. Then “web apps” - but i think that’s a windows perspective. This claims they came from NEXT which apple bought in the 90s. https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/when-did-programs-become-apps.136416/ The thread also refers to bitmap image files as bumps which I’d still do if I ever saw a bump again. So the thread is legitimate.
