Yes, QML is nice. Yes, it would be great if everyone used that instead of <your solution here>. But it's not going to happen. What will happen instead is that web-native solutions will outcompete imports again and again, as they have since the dawn of the web, because the shape of the space itself privileges solutions that are able to handle the terrain. Yes, React kind of sucks in places. Yes, its PATENTS file is discomfiting. No, it won't be replaced anytime soon; we literally just got here.
Attempting to replace front-end web dev with markups and paradigms from the desktop is the software equivalent of marching on Moscow. There are better things you could do with your soldier's bodies.
