Co-author of the survey here, thanks for posting! Happy to answer any questions :)
(As long as the question is not something along the lines of "My favorite library Foo.js is doing pretty poorly in your survey, surely there must be an issue with your methodology?")
- vaeix 8y agoMy favorite library Foo.js is doing pretty poorly in your survey, surely there must be an issue with your methodology? ;)
- Digit-Al 8y agoNot a question but a suggestion. I live in England and am very aware that the residents of Scotland and Wales don't like to be classed as "English". You might want to change the title to the more neutral (and correct) Britain, Great Britain, GB, United Kingdom, or UK.
- sgdesign 8y agoOh I didn't even see that, thanks for the feedback!
- Stoo 8y agoTo be absolutely correct it should be United Kingdom, not Great Britain, as you also have Northern Ireland marked as England.
- meigwilym 8y agoHere's a map to explain the difference. https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/blog/2011/08/whats-the-difference-between-uk-britain-and-british-isles/ https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/blog/2011/08/whats-the-diff...
- Digit-Al 8y agoYou're welcome. I see you've changed it now. Glad to be of help :-)
- wackro 8y agoIt would be UK, as it includes NI. To the parent - Great Britain is the land mass containing England/Scotland/Wales. The UK is the whole thing.
- Digit-Al 8y agoGood point :-)
- welly 8y agoI keep hearing about this Foo.js framework being the new React but can't find a repo!
- kasperni 8y agoNot a Javascript developer. But that survey was beautiful! Anyone doing a state of any language/platform should take note.

- mckee1 8y agoOn the demographic map of respondents, you say England when you presumably mean the UK. There is a difference!
- enturn 8y agoThe links to learn more in the popovers on the other libraries page [1] are impossible to click since they disappear when not hovering over the name. Apologies if someone has mentioned this before. Edit: I'm using Waterfox. It works well in Chrome. 1. https://2018.stateofjs.com/front-end-frameworks/other-libraries/ https://2018.stateofjs.com/front-end-frameworks/other-librar...
- deltron3030 8y agoAre you surprised by the low percentage of solo devs and small teams (startups) in your survey? How do you think does this bias towards "enterprise" affect more full featured solutions like Meteor, that are more geared towards small teams and indie hackers?
- sgdesign 8y agoNot really surprised. And I think Meteor got in trouble precisely because it appealed mostly to small teams, so that doesn't seem to be a viable business model.
