I made the transition from writing native QT applications in C++ to javascript front ends (generally React) a few years ago. In my experience, writing robust front-end applications was much harder in C++ than it is in javascript. The memory management in QT can get pretty complicated for large applications, and a single mistake can get you a segfault crash. Not to mention that it's much easier to hot-patch a javascript file on the server and then ask everyone to please hit CTRL-R on their browsers than it is to recompile and redistribute a binary to all my clients. At this point, all of the UI components at my company are js based and I couldn't be happier.
