I think you also need to include folks who would choose to use React over TypeScript/Angular and other things. React seems very popular to me and offers a similar experience to Flex in that you have class files that combine presentation and code (like MXML) or just plain code. Plus it is a gateway to React/Native. I think from the technology point of view, this is a big competitor.
