Can you name some examples?

I'm also curious to see this thing ported to the web, maybe with WebAssembly even.

React Native or Flutter. If you are coming from the web and learn SwiftUI you are stuck in iOS land. RN & Flutter and you can build for Android as well.

You're right, I guess "move to native development" is the wrong term here, since it's applecentric.

I've been doing React Native for a while at my current job, but got really curious to see where Apple is going with this. But of course it alienates the process to iOS.

Right. I just can't imagine ignoring a platform as large as Android as a dev. That would be a like building an web app and not having it work for half of Chrome users.
