I looked through the docs some and thought it looked quite nice, except that it appears you have to write the app in c++. I see that Qt Quick uses Javascript in some way, but it seems like you'd primarily be writing your application in c++ and then maybe doing some UI scripting with javascript—is that right?
I'm not particularly tied to javascript, but just have no interest in investing the time to learn c++ properly, so that would be a showstopper for me and probably lots of others who are considering going down the Electron route.
To re-iterate though, QML does look like a very nice system for specifying UIs...

No, you can write full apps in QML/JS (I personnally prefer going the C++ route for the stricter typing and better performance, but to each its own :p). Most JS libs will work (except those that work on the HTML DOM since ... it's not HTML).
