I had this discussion the other day with a junior engineer in regards to web assembly and the need for more stable compile targets than javascript.<p>I think a big part of the problem is that web developers have forgotten (or never learned) about a lot of the ui innovation that has already been done for native platform development.<p>I blame the page &#x2F; html &#x2F; dom model for this. It has forced generations of web developers to figure out clever (or not) workarounds to the point that they actually think they are innovating when they arrive at the point qt was at years ago.
