Just because you don't like JavaScript doesn't mean the person you're talking to won't. Furthermore I don't know what "first class support" means when React Native has an IDE built on Atom provided by Facebook. It is a bit abstract compared to writing out Java or Objective-C but so is C++. What frameworks allow you to write native UIs in C++ on all platforms?

First class support for a programming language means it is part of the SDK provided for the OS vendor for the said platform. It also means that the official IDE for the specific platform supports the language and is able to offer mixed debugging across all languages provided by the vendor SDK. SDL, Cocos-2d, openFrameworks, Qt among many others. Or just keep the logic in C++ and make use of Objective-C++, C++/CX, SafeJNI for the native UI. The suggestion was made for me to use ClojureScript, which implies enjoying JavaScript in addition to Clojure. So I am the one that is supposed to enjoy it or not.

  I thought the person was asking for themselves, not for you?

    Given that it was an answer to my comment about not being happy with the state of Clojure for targeting Android and UWP, I would assume it was a suggestion to me.
