It's depend of your goal. Reimplent Gimp as a webapp is surely not a
fine idea :) Even there if some mini-gimp implemented today in JS/HTML5.

But for a management software ?

I have big hopes with this special GNAT flavour outputting webassembly.
Coupling Ada_GUI with this compiler could produce amazing results, but
made it for real is far from my skills...

In fact, using GtkAda seems to move the problem of portability to a very
"volatile", not to say unstable, graphic interface.

But there are people here who are better informed and more legitimate
than I am on this subject, especially about GtkAda
