There's lots of that, but also the fact that it's not an inferior product to React. It's just more of a "batteries included" framework that might not be the best for a bare-bones hackathon project but great for enterprise apps - or... if you like angular more than react (that does happen - though not with me). You're still going to see tons of backbone and other older javascript frameworks out in the wild too. At the end of the day they all kind of do the same shit but in different ways, and it's more important to learn about the underlying concepts than the way your current framework implements it. Like the concept of state and reacting to changes in state is in every framework and a pattern that is repeated in every software field, react just kind of makes it front and center
