It may be extinct in some places, but in many others HTML knowledge is quite alive.
React is great for some tasks, but it's ridiculous for others. Its use can be overengineering, and it presumes that JavaScript execution is always allowed for all websites (which is not true).
Plain HTML, pre-generated as a static site or generated server-side at runtime, is a better solution in many cases. React is great for the things it was designed for.
Fad engineering is just that, a fad. All technologies have situations or cases where they should not be used. People should never use a technology until they understand at least some situations where it should not be used.
