Unfamiliar... for whom?
Are we at the point where all developers, or all GUI developers, are expected to be familiar with HTML/CSS/JS/DOM concepts?
The QT stuff is familiar to me (from python mostly), but I have only very barebones knowledge of HTML/JS and almost none of the DOM and CSS.

Unfortunately, yes, and we've been there for a while. >The QT stuff is familiar to me (from python mostly), but I have only very barebones knowledge of HTML/JS and almost none of the DOM and CSS. Feel free to join the rest of us dinosaurs out on the patio to watch the world burn.
- jasode 5y ago>Unfamiliar... for whom? For the web developers who want to re-use their existing frontend skills of Javascript+HTML+CSS to create cross-platform desktop executables ... instead of learning a different GUI toolkit such as C++ QT, or C# Winforms WPF, or Java SwingGUI, Pascal Delphi, etc. The op's links of Electron alternatives based on Qt do offer re-use of Javascript skills but I guess that's not enough of a compelling value proposition to gain mindshare.
