Hiring is a lagging indicator, but I see React hitting a plateau the way angular did. I see Vue is on the cusp of takeoff. Time will tell if it fails to launch, but I'm seeing more interest in Vue at meetups than React. I think a lot of this has more to do with React's state management than licensing. One of the react developers said it best. Paraphrasing; Everyone stopped saying React is fun after Redux.

> Everyone stopped saying React is fun after Redux. From my understanding managing state is a fundamentally hard problem, and Redux just make it very explicit and avoid the confusion of a state living in multiple places. Did not try Vue but is the state management simpler?

  way simpler. it's just Redux down to it's core minimum, which is really just an abstraction layer to setting variables.

    Redux's core minimum is already pretty incredibly minimal; I have a hard time imagining things much more simple than that. react-redux, which is neither redux nor the only way to integrate redux with react, is a bit more complicated but still not very complicated.

Angular didn't hit plateau, but collapsed after ng2 was announced. React will replace angular and hit plateau just because the number of f/e jobs is limited.

Redux is completely optional, 3rd party library. So I really don't understand why anyone would say that. You don't like Redux? Don't use it.

  Everything is a 3rd party library when it comes to the building complex React based app. Redux is a part of the hype train, so you are going to use it if you are on the train.

    There's two mainstream options for state management right now: Redux and MobX. But even the creator of Redux says "You might not need redux" https://medium.com/@dan_abramov/you-might-not-need-redux-be46360cf367 https://medium.com/@dan_abramov/you-might-not-need-redux-be4...

      Right, and MobX like thing is built-in into the Vue.
