I was thinking along the same lines and came across both this post and my namesake's blog post.
Joaquim's results look really good!
I agree with Gordon that for most Espruino boards it's really overkill. But for devices with more than enough resources, I think it makes much more sense. If only SquareLine Studio would output JavaScript! On second thought, then I wouldn't be writing code anymore :)

Thank you for your feedback.
While working on the pebble fonts and getFonts (see https://github.com/espruino/BangleApps/issues/3109) I asked myself if I am not somehow reinventing the wheel. Then I found joaquim's project with lvgl and espruino https://www.joaquim.org/espruino-in-pinetime-40/
I was impressed what a good looking UI he created on espruino. The combination of bangle js os, app ecosystem, ability to be programmed via javascript on a web IDE and a mature embedded UI lib with lot's of widgets, themeing, styles, etc looked very promising.
But I understand that would be a big change.
