im going to just say whats on my chest. it makes me wonder if react devs who thinks react is the greatest thing since sliced bread are somewhat new to web development (less than 2-3 years or so). because im sure those who inherently know, would find that vuejs is just a superior framework (sans native). there will always be new frameworks that comes out and some will be better than the last. and vue to me is leading the forefront and does things that makes sense for web development. once vue releases native, i think there arent many reasons to use react if vue is available. when ppl say react is the best or that its for complex apps makes me shake my head, as those who believe that may be just naive or dont have much experience to make up their mind. experience over time, leads you to strive for patterns and elegance, and unfortunately react doesnt have that which makes it feel there is a bit of immaturity in the framework. this is why i wouldnt be surprised if many if the react fans are the way they are in their stance. its just my two cents from an old js dev who have seen through over 15 years, so your views maybe different from me, but should be similar to those who knows what im talking about.

I don't think that years of experience has anything to do with liking vue or react. I know how you feel, because my colleague had similar thoughts on React, he even created something very similar to vue a few years before vue(jade+css+js in one file). While I just use pure virtual-dom (no jsx) and almost nothing else. The way you put it, some people look for patterns and elegance, while some look for simplicity (no special v-bind or v-if), modularity and deletability. There is nothing more senior about one way or the other, just different personal preferences.

It would probably help if you provided any kind of actual argument for vue.js being so superior other than the head shaking and vague claims about react not having "patterns" and "elegance". For the record, I have been in web development for as long as you are, so that alone does not seem sufficient to immediately see the of superiority of vue.js over everything else.
