Very less people think Microsoft is a threat. This shows, no body wants to build an office app(like Excel or Word). We don't really see a lot of innovation in slide show applications(I used powerpoint in 2006 and now I also use the same).

The world also lacks innovation in Desktop App. Web Form and C# is very popular and Java Swing seems slow or not attractive. Qt has confusing Licensing terms.

I guess someone should think about some good frameworks for Desktop(like a universal look and feel in Javascript or some open specification).




React + Electron? And eventually replace Electron with react-native.
