React - as a library, but especially as a UI paradigm - has clearly won the frontend war for now, taking the mantle from JQuery. I don't even use React directly, just its DOM renderer through a ClojureScript wrapper (reagent) and the high-level concepts are still basically the same.
Still, when I glance at the JS frontend world people are still looking for the next hot frontend framework all the time, even if many are doing something similar to React. Going by github stars, Vue is the biggest one now. There's also Angular, Svelte, Ember, and Aurelia.
