Hi Alan,
So far I've kept these separated, but both use the same backend code/API to avoid duplicate code / logic.
If it isn't for the layout, there are lot's of other things to cover for example double-click, rightclick, tooltips (Although right click is possible on some touch-based OS)
This last bit already applies when you are not only targeting desktop, but also tablets.
It will take time to create separate forms, or even plain webapp. But I think it will save even more time when not having to create everything in 1 responsive layout.
Whether or not to use Servoy for mobile, also depends on the api's you want to use on your device (camera, geolocation, shake gestures, etc.)
Although you can cover this by creating an app with a web view container and javascript bridge to these api's.
That last solution makes it a whole lot easier to deploy a newer version of your app, as the container remains the same.
Any best practice? I guess not, but I hope the above will help you to make a decission.
