You didnt have to write them with Mojo, you could write them with any HTML/JS framework, or just roll you own. Mojo was just the one the Palm apps (Email, Web, Phone, ..) used.

And a vast majority of the apps for the platform used it for UI. C/C++ was generally only used for games ported from iOS to webOS, or when writing a custom plugin for some capability not provided by the service architecture.
