Same with XAML/WPF on Windows platforms which is very refreshing if you've been building for the web for years.

Yeah I've dabbled just a bit with these and they seem like a nice way to build UIs, also making data binding a lot cleaner than on the web or in the various mobile SDKs.

Honestly I think Microsoft has the best developer toolkit in the business right now but they haven't yet had the product design prowess to put that technology in the consumer's hands in any significant numbers.
