To me, it feels like the same effect as Ruby ~15-10 years ago. Lots of chaos as good (subsequently winnowed down to preferred), patterns were discovered, and then things stabilized. It isn't sexy anymore, but to this day I've yet to discover a better tool, that lets me blast out features and make changes at rapid pace, than Ruby (and Rails on the web side).
