https://gist.github.com/tkrotoff/b1caa4c3a185629299ec234d2314e190

Findings: React is by far the most popular front-end framework/library (and continues to grow faster). In addition, React is more loved and "wanted" than other front-end frameworks (although it is more used: satisfaction tends to decrease with popularity).
