At first glance, this project looks like it's mostly a widget library built on top of ReactJS. Grommet may have grander ambitions than that (similar to how Qt has lots of non-GUI components such as file access, cryptographic hashes, etc.).
Looking over the widgets, this is not something to write apps like:
- 2D games
- raster graphics such as visualizing a stadium of available seats for customers to choose and buy tickets
... hence the "enterprisey" nature of the UX framework. It has dashboards, datagrids, calendar picker, etc to help you write typical line-of-business apps.
As for why they characterize it as "enterprise", you can look at their examples from http://www.grommet.io/docs/design/showcase
Also look at the blog post: http://blog.grommet.io/2015/11/23/what-is-grommet/
