summary

Panel assesses Leland’s 2017 claim and says it largely comes true: React and React Native grow in enterprise use, TypeScript dominance shows up in hiring data and poll results, and strongly typed alternatives like ReScript fail to take over. Conversation names concrete tools: SWC and Prepack for faster builds, Flutter and Vue as notable competitors, and a fintech using Svelte for an embedded app. Predictions emphasize more compile-step tooling and incremental typing rather than a wholesale language replacement.
