Not nearly as nuclear, but I found a nice replacement for js alert that is real cool and lightweight but unlike alert, does not stop execution. it's the last statement in the readme.md as if the dev is sorry about it.

UWP is the same way; the methods for their "content dialog" control are .Hide and .ShowAsync().

Regardless of Java vs Kotlin, mobile apps in general are non-blocking (bad UX otherwise). That's one of the ways in which they differ from desktop apps.

I've yet to have to resort to fanciness. It's mostly just making sure the design is correct and then taking advantage of what the OS already provides.

And it often drives me crazy… after 35 years of CUA everywhere, mobile OSes decided to change everything to “happens now”.
Most mobile OSes have no OK/Cancel to commit a form at a time. It is a field at a time now.

That's not the name I know it under! 
I admit, I had to google it under my name to find their name ...

My sympathies to all you Brits. She was loved and respected in the U.S. almost as much as the Commonwealth. 
Watching all of the different YouTube videos of her past life, I am truly impressed by two things.
First, was her participation in the British armed forces during WWII, as an Automotive Mechanic! 
Second, was her sense of humor. The Paddington bear video and the James Bond video clip. 
My wife, a rabid anglophile, we would emigrate to England if I could get a job there. She put a life sized "sticker" of some sort on our refrigerator door, depicting a head shot of the queen smiling and waving.
She reminds me of my Mother-in-law who was one of the few people I have ever known that was selfless and totally good through and through.
Finally, I have to say that no one anywhere in the world does "Pomp and Circumstance" like the British! I guess that's what a Thousand Years or so in a country develops.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Earlier today I was watching the proclamation of the accession of King Charles the Third on BBC news and one of the commentators said something about the influence Queen Elizabeth the Second had on the world.
Apparently, in a typical German-English dictionary the translation for "the queen" is "die Königin" with a plural of "die Königinnen". There is also a translation for "the Queen" which is "die Queen"; there is no plural.
The fact that you could give this thread the subject it has confirms that around the world she was simply The Queen.

It's official. I've just contributed to LVGL - Light and Versatile Embedded Graphics Library[^]
And big stuff too. A truetype engine that runs on middleweight MCUs. The lead on the project is super excited to have it, and I'm excited to provide it.
Also added a feature that was sorely lacking - a way to stream data out of arrays embedded in header files. Now my fonts can work off an array in flash as well as working off an open file.
This is cool.

I was getting super frustrated. It's taking me longer to push this than it did to write it.

What's an "era" in this context? And a "business Pin"?
If you want this kind of flexibility, you should separate the GUI and server components of your application. You can then provide a GUI on various clients and run your server on various platforms. Which framework(s) are best for each component isn't something I can tell you, because I don't have much experience building these kinds of applications.

Build using a technology familiar to you, and get a working solution ready. Then it can be ported to another technology with not much effort.
Better to get something in hand rather than spend time endlessly in deciding which way to proceed.

A web server can run locally. In fact, many devices use an "on board" web server to present an interface.
This gets back to the proper definition of "requirements".

Nammit!!
You build up to that, just to post that you can't post the part that makes it a joke? It's not even Googleable due to the search terms! (Google "blind deer" is not yielding jokes)
So now I walk the rest of the day with an incomplete joke in my head.
