Whether it be desktop or mobile, there is no single cross-platform solution that's really all that great. In terms of "viability", young Android devs and iOS devs grow on trees... including those who are comfortable writing both Java and Swift. In contrast, finding a competent C++ Android or iOS developer is much more challenging. And he or she would still have to manage a codebase with completely different GUI frameworks crammed into it. I'm not arguing that "X" is a better cross-platform panacea than "Y". I'm arguing that the underlying premise is misguided.
