The article omits some major influential JS projects over the years that folks have already pointed out (Backbone, Coffeescript, Underscore -- and I'd add Require.js, as a commonplace early AMD loader before ES modules were a thing). And then it also lists 2 projects that, frankly, I've never heard of (and I try to keep pace) and speaks of them in suspiciously-glowing terms, speculating about them being significant in the future. Fine, you can't always know today what will have had the biggest impact in 5 years, but the result is that this reads like a really bad "puff piece" ad for those two projects. It's like when you see blog posts from some SaaS company about "best practices for <industry>", and the first few tips are either obvious or wrong, and the last few tips are "buy our product!"
