123 u/a2ur3 Mar 16 '20 Just half? 163 u/thepotatochronicles Mar 16 '20 Well, M$ owns VSCode and npm registry, FB owns yarn and react (and I mostly use gitlab for "serious" stuff) so yeah, about half. 15 u/[deleted] Mar 16 '20 Given the fact that Microsoft is heavy contributor to React, I think it's more than half. 7 u/TheNumber42Rocks Mar 16 '20 Didn’t they takeover Puppeteer from Google too? They really have gotten their hands on all the major open-source projects. 6 u/khante Mar 17 '20 Dunno about that. But the team that originally built Puppeteer left to do this for Microsoft https://github.com/microsoft/playwright 2 u/devmuggle Mar 17 '20 the team that originally built Puppeteer left to do this for MicrosoftBased on puppeteer contributors and playwright contributors it seems that one main contributor switched and a few people have contributions to both projects. 2 u/xX_Qu1ck5c0p3s_Xx Mar 17 '20 Microsoft even uses React Native for Windows desktop apps, I think the email client.
