Orders of magnitude easier than C++? Please. C++ at least done Qt style really isn't that bad, it took me a few hours to get up and running with a reasonable Qt setup at work and start a project, when I had to do the same for electron I spent nearly a week mucking with gulp, babel, react and reading about which packing solution I should use, if I want to use TypeScript or Flow and if I can integrate them with the libraries I need to work with...

Learning Qt is much easier than the JS ecosystem. It's one intergrated package with no messing around and a very clear suggested structure to applications.

My coworkers still seem to want to hack everything in to main.js, can't understand react and one of the main libraries we are required to work with just doesn't integrate well with it at all. On the Qt side of things everything flows smoothly, the class architecture makes sense.
