I like to Keep it simple - and it's very painfull to do that in C++. Yes, you can write simple code, but it's lot easier to do it in other languages.

Untrue though Qt itself is not updated to take advantage of C++14 and newer features.

I'll take slightly more complex syntax over untraceable dynamic weak typing of JS.

How many times have you got random undefined?

Modern C++ is not simple, but modern JavaScript is?

Before you use modern c++ you have to learn all the "old" features to really understand what you're doing. Also I didn't say a thing about JavaScript.
