yes, while it is gaining adoption, there are still a couple of major tasks before it really takes off, namely dependency management and structural sharing.
Many heavy hitting tech companies have developers using and exploring it, mainly because it augments rather than replaces. It's very easy to add validation while not changing anything else. Lots of users around Kubernetes applications.
Didn't realize people still used Wikipedia for things besides for "facts" since its descent into the political / opinion battlegrounds. It's been years since I used it
Again, who's actually using it? All I see is Salesforce and two no name companies. It's supported by Netlify which is something, but I wouldn't say "hard hitting companies". Netflix and Amazon are hard hitting.
If it doesn't have a Wikipedia article, there's a very good chance it isn't very popular in the industry. At least in terms of open source standard technology, which this appears to be reaching for.
Google, Amazon, Tesla, Tencent, Alibaba, ByteDance are in the list, not all are on a website. It's not like a company mandate, mainly individual contributors checking it out and building things.
It's not widespread because it is just starting to get going, but it is definitely popular (well liked) among its users.
It's about as necessary as your comment stating facts about the future. :)
In any case, I apologise - my comment was indeed unnecessary and didn't bring any value to the discussion. Had it been made to me I might not have been as good a sport as you have so kudos to you!
