https://github.com/DioxusLabs/blitz - This kinda covers the "engine without JS" part, it's a bit more limited, but also in alpha. It's part of the dioxus project, they use it for rendering UI on desktop.
Oh now that's interesting. I've always wondered (not knowing much about how they're made) if it would be possible to make a desktop compositor for Linux that simply uses HTML and CSS. One could even natively embed local pages in it.
Gnome shell uses JS and CSS (i beleive anyway), and the w11 start menu is supposedly react native, so I think the answer is definitely yes.
I knew there was a reason why it sucked so much!
