But tech like Flux and Redux are clearly derived from the Command pattern (of course i've never seen or heard reference to these patterns in the docs or videos for for flux and redux), and also seem pretty similar to Java enterprise patterns so arguably were already in the mainstream 10 years ago (at least). See http://www.corej2eepatterns.com/Patterns/ServiceToWorker.htm http://www.corej2eepatterns.com/Patterns/FrontController.htm http://www.corej2eepatterns.com/Patterns/DispatcherView.htm

I work daily with javascript and enjoy it but it frustrates me that people treat aforementioned tech as cutting edge but these ideas were already around a long time ago. The counter to this is that javascript is finally maturing and starting to use these patterns which is a positive thing, I just wish the people promoting these "new" technologies would give recognition to what came before.
