The web is open, standardised, has the mindshare and the runtime (browser) is everywhere. There have been initiatives to bring e.g. Qt or GTK to web, but no success AFAIK.

It's a shame that no one takes something like the old Android codebase and makes it for web in the canvas. Is that even possible?
