Yes but Qt comes with the drawbacks of being tied to Qt.

With Electron + React, you'd be able to rip out any components you need and place them in other web apps. The browser is (psychologically) avoiding vendor dependencies to a greater degree than other options.

You are tied to web and react. You can substitute react for something else (I suppose) but still tied to that.

I know of a few other cross platform toolkits if you don't like Qt, but in all cases you quickly become tied to it.
