The aversion is mostly that a lot of devs have learned to use html, css, and js for styling ui's. I love Kivy as well as QT. You can make some decent looking apps with the former and some incredible ones with the later. I have never personally worked with Electron. But yeah, most devs use JS, HTML, and CSS for ui creation because of the Web. I think something like QML could replace the html and css parts, though.

To add to this point, virtually all software companies have devs with web dev experience that can be very easily leveraged with Electron. Native app development skills aren’t nearly as prevalent in most organisations in my experience. The success of electron has never been that much of a surprise to me: write once, ship (almost) everywhere, use the team you already have. Often cheaper than upskilling the team as well.
