I don't think it needs the ecosystem React has. It has all of the components you need to build excellent software - great debugging experiences, testing, routing, state management. At that point it doesn't really matter all that much what else you've got. |

React has a self sufficient cross platform eco system. I don't think people using primarily web frameworks even realize the implications of that yet. React works outside of the browser, and not just natively on mobile but literally everywhere. Imagine you use React as you always would to make a native command line application (https://github.com/Yomguithereal/react-blessed), but now you want to have a store or move things around, so you `npm install react-redux react-motion` and you just apply it (https://github.com/gaearon/react-blessed-hot-motion). Look at the code and try to picture the overhead if you had to do this in C++.
Being able to transfer code and knowledge, and seeing new renderers pop up for the wildest platforms each day, as well as official renderers made by big vendors (https://github.com/Microsoft/react-native-windows), the idea of a web-bound Angular-like framework seems odd in 2018. I wouldn't expect Vue to get the same kind of popularity without at least competing or doing something new.
