It's true that Angular and React are supported by huge corporations. It also means that they will tailor these libraries for their mega scale usecases.

The problems that Google and FB is trying to solve at their unique mega scale is rarely the issues that startups and medium sized companies are facing. Flux and Graphsql comes to mind.

For example micro-services are great for Amazon but may add more complexity to tech team that are less than 50 people.

The benefit, even for small applications is reusability.

I have already published a <ng-markdown> component to GitHub that can be installed via JSPM and imported as an ES6-module.

The new module and web component standard are going to completely change the nature of how web applications will be built in the future.

Unfortunately, it'll be a few years until both standards are natively supported across all browsers.

Until then, web component frameworks like React, Ember, and Angular2 are the best alternative.

If you don't like frameworks, you can use polymer to as a web component polyfill but I've heard it adds a lot of overhead for what it provides and has some quirks of its own.
