Hope it starts to chip into React’s usershare and more companies adopt it, but I know that’s a slow process especially for the big companies.

I got out of front end development for most of the years Angular and React have dominated and it looked like a mess, but Svelte and even Astro make sense, maybe I’m just old school. I would totally go back to the frontend with these new frameworks.

If Vue hasn't made a dent, I don't ever expect Svelte to. Angular was the only high-level competitor and I haven't heard that one in a long time already.

For a framework to eat into React's usage, it needs a strong evangelist (like Facebook has been for React)

I was very amused this summer, hearing a company that I had worked at six years ago is switching from React to Angular. I had thought angular was dead.

Angular is really popular for corporate apps, in companies who use .NET. Possibly because Angular has batteries included.
