Wow, Dojo is still alive and kicking! I'm going to have to find some time to take it for a spin. I really like the idea of framework that looks to address a few needs, making framework selection easier and less reliant on "Oh Framework X is popular now? Let's use that and hire a bunch of devs for it..."
While Dojo is there, I'm surprised ExtJS is not. I haven't worked with it directly for quite a few years but I know it is still being supported. I seem to recall some backlash around licensing issues so maybe that's caused a dip in market/mindshare?
I liked Elm when I played with it, especially the similarities with Haskell. Unfortunately they had moved away from some of the Haskell like syntax shortly after I started with it, and I didn't feel like I fully understood how to use JSON properly.
Kind of surprised to not see Meteor on there. Haven't used it for awhile, and iirc there were concerns around security, deployment, MongoDB lock in (which I thought they were moving away from?) at the time. For smaller, personal use projects I felt I got moving quicker and easier with Meteor than anything else.
I'd love to see something like this for libraries and tooling. Really feels like a lot of worthy choices, and therefore a lot of high-level knowledge needed to understand which to choose and when.
