I have been using QT to build small applications for desktop platform. The cross platform support of QT and its nice look and feel made me to decide to use it for my apps. But recently I had to write a Chrome extension, and casually I found that Google now supports standalone Apps, that can run outside of the browser. I know C/C++ is not anything close to Javascript and I love C deep down in my heart. But I see Chrome Apps and its native client API as a big competition to QT framework. If your solution can make it without the speed of C, Chrome Apps may be a very good platform to write code for desktops and mobile devices. Development times would be cut in half when wrote in Javascript and cross platform support would be included by definition.

What do you think about it? Does anyone tried Chrome Apps and can make comments on how then could impact QT market share on the long run?
