    I 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.

      I’ve been coding since the '80s. I’ve never once heard anyone refer to a bitmap as a “bump”.
