If it is so trivial, what is the big deal with "Single Page Applications"? Seems like plenty of pain there in the HTML and CSS world..

Meanwhile, there have never been anything but Single Page Applications in the native world.

And sure, Qt is now more than 20 years old, it's from a time strongly rooted in "widget" based UI systems that have somewhat fallen out of favor. That is what QML is for, which similarly to WPF that started this trend, allows for GPU accelerated vector composition of anything you could ever want, with sane provided defaults so not every project is reinventing grids.

While on the web to get GPU acceleration of anything beyond WebGL, it is a guessing game depending on the browser.
