100% - React has won the FrontEnd wars. Anything else is great to love and to use in a hobby project, but if it's for a business, React is the one FrontEnd tech you can be confident people will still be using heavily in ten years.

Just compare the npm trends of react and $coolthing, then look at the number or active committers and the maintainer succession planning.

That's what they said about the original Angular framework and Backbone before it. In another 10 years React will just be another legacy front-end framework that some poor asshole will get stuck maintaining.

It'll still be react. But react won't be the same react as today.

It'll be jquery.

React won worst front end framework that somehow got popular and brainwashed people into creating a mess to double down on.

There are still a lot of companies using Angular and Vue. Especially some big institutions that started using AngularJS (pre-"Angular") years before React was really popular.

You know that won't last forever though, right? React will be replaced by another technology eventually, and in the web development world 5 years from now is 2-3 tech generations down the road.
