It has been firmly superseded in popularity by the two giants React and Angular, which have way bigger endorsers and a lot of documentation and Q/A on Stack Overflow and the internet in general.

The best part of the underscore.js is the collection helper functions and underscore.string functions which can be used in almost all projects.
