For a trivial application perhaps, or if you really can stick to using a bunch of standard components and be done with it. In my experience, if you want to make a good interface, that is not where the work stops. There is very, versy significant effort in a good user interface.

Different platforms require a different UI. Which amounts to more of the work I already pointed out above.
