I don't think Gtk is the answer because it's fundamentally an old toolkit, but an OS built around Xilem would be an interesting idea.

Is Xilem remotely as mature a framework as one required for writing an OS and generating a toolchain and SDK at par with Mac OS (or iOS), Cocoa/Swift/Flutter?

No, it's not mature at all at this point.

Hmm got it. If a Linux skin is rewritten in Qt, and the SDK and tool chain are exposed through Qt, can they be as performant, smooth and give the native feel like Mac OS or iOS apps?
