Perhaps you are not aware of it. I am not talking about electron. I am talking about react native. Emphasis on "native". Please look it up.

  Ah, my bad. In that case, the performance concern might not apply, but the cultural concerns probably still do, to a lesser degree.

    On the contrary, all the good langs have a js backend. Wouldn't you love to use purescript/haskell/Scala/ocaml for cross platform GUI apps? I know I desperately want such a thing :)

      Oh yes, we're living the dream already. But the poor natives of the various environments, just can't convince us universalists to follow their customs, share in their libraries, unpack our stuff into the designated locations. I mean, I'm fine with doing that for my favorite OS, but I'm not going to learn the details of everyone else's OS, not when I can ride above it all on a magic abstraction layer.
