I agree one would have a similar experience as the author when learning Flutter, but it is because on mobile you need to have all these shiny things so it's no wonder that documentation covers it in detail. However, you can perfectly write Flutter apps without animations, transitions and the like.
We need desktop and mobile, making Qt/QML our only apparent practical choice.
BTW, we built a desktop app in QML and the GUI performs great. The resizing is smooth and elegant.

Inasmuch as desktop applications continue to exist, the future is Electron. The only applications for which there is still demand for traditional GUI apps are military and medical device applications. Oddly specific, and definitely authoritative-sounding. You might be correct but it's the sort of wording that demands evidence in support to differentiate it from pure partisanism.
When I see a job req out there for traditional desktop GUI skills (C++, Qt, Win32, etc.) it's for a military application or a medical device.
I’d consider Godot but it’s unusable for deploying on mobile platforms. We need desktop and mobile, making Qt/QML our only apparent practical choice. BTW, we built a desktop app in QML and the GUI performs great. The resizing is smooth and elegant.
Why not Flutter?

You might want to read my post again, I specifically talked about AR and VR applications
I did read your post, and I include AR and VR in my assessment. Even in a virtual 3D environment, adding a third dimension to a user interface just makes it less convenient.

Yeah… in Dart, which nobody knows.

Or GDScript, Godot’s language, which nobody knows. This is my major barrier to even considering Godot right now. Perhaps once their Kotlin bindings are ready for production…

can we not use any other language for it, like C, Cpp, etc
Godot is changing their plugin system in a future version, which hopefully will make language support much easier.
