My 2016 JavaScript predictions:

1) React.js starts to lose popularity due to it's ultra complex tooling ecosystem. People want to feel like what they learn will be still be useful at their next job. The React ecosystem doesn't provide that; the React ecosystem tends to burn people out.

2) Smaller frameworks like Vue or Riot takes the spotlight.

3) Angular 2 is a hit thanks to its "batteries included" design, which will appeal to React burnouts.

4) A new JavaScript rendering-based framework will come out and become a hit. Something like Turbolinks or Glimmer, except it doesn't break jQuery or sandboxes you to an ecosystem.

3.1) Angular team announces Angular 3, which is a complete re-design and not backwards-compatible with Angular 2.

Alternative prediction: the React.js ecosystem starts to standardize and stabilize, probably around Redux and WebPack. React developers' productivity and satisfaction improves.
