The Drupal community struggled a bit with the decision as well (see https://www.drupal.org/node/2645250 https://www.drupal.org/node/2645250). It seems there are a number of open source communities and enterprise development shops who are just not comfortable with the patent clause. React had a lot of momentum, but it seems alternatives like Vue.js are going to be the long-term winners in terms of being 'the next jQuery' in terms of longevity as a front end standard.
- ergo14 9y agoThe next jquery will be probably Polymer (since it is a library). VueJS/Angular are bigger frameworks.
- BinaryIdiot 9y agoI very much agree with this. Web components are usable in and out of any framework and once browser support will be there I think they'll be huge. Until then, Polymer helps fill in the missing pieces. Reminds me of jQuery before browser vendors integrated things like selector querying.
- erikpukinskis 9y agoI don't think there will ever be another jQuery. Just like there won't be another Michael Jackson. The world is balkanizing, different people use different tools and listen to different music in a way that wasn't typical 10 years ago.
