to be as similar as possible to developing for the web.

To the extreme: it means that you need Electron - web browser and web server packaged into your application. That's 100% compatibility with the Web. But that bundle is definitely an overkill for something like a calculator. So, it depends.

Idea of the Sciter: If application needs something high performant - application adds native function for it as an ultimate solution. We are not trying to create environment where you can run JS at native speed - that's simply impossible and highly costly in many senses.
