As the year is over, it is curious who was the most loved and the most wanted and used JavaScript front end framework in 2019. Let’s review the statistics of the most popular – Angular, React, and Vue frameworks. All of them were definitely the rockstars of 2019.
Data that was used
All the data that was used to make this infographic, was taken from public sources. The numbers are close to the exact values, however, it is not 100 % accurate. The reason for this is that the historical data was available from the specific days and not from the start of the year (the earliest snapshots of some of the Github repositories that I managed to find, were from January 5, 7, or any other day). Here are the sources I’ve taken the data from:
- https://github.com/vuejs/vue
- https://github.com/facebook/react/
- https://github.com/angular/angular
- https://npm-stat.com/charts.html?package=react&package=vue&package=%40angular%2Fcore&from=2019-01-01&to=2019-12-31
