I said if there are no alternatives. There was no alternative to React for a long time, and it gained much popularity and momentum.

But there are many alternatives to Flow.

Angular is 4 years older than React, and generally speaking front-end frameworks have been probably the single most competed/overcrowded area...

There was absolutely nothing like react at the time it came out, angular had none of its key features.

Today we have Vue and others are forming in other languages, but still today angular takes a very different approach to the front end. But react’s breakthrough in the virtual dom management was totally new and really changed a lot of things in our industry.
