Evan You is a fantastic developer. He understands that libraries are not solely about what they do; they are also about the API you present to the developer. Interacting with Vue feels natural. I don't really know any other way to describe it. I've been working with React on my latest job for nearly a year now, and I still run into strange little gotchas and difficult concepts(I'm looking at you `componentWillReceiveProps` with an ajax call). I have never run into these types of issues while using Vue.

Probably because you use react everyday at work...

He's also very good at supporting the framework. Both with bug fixes and support questions. Currently Vue has only 62 open and 4519 closed issues on github. That's very impressive.

  For what is essentially a one man project with the kind of traction he has gotten I think even very is underselling it, I'd say in incredibly possibly ludicrously impressive.

  Evan seems to be everywhere and doing everything all at the same time. He is very impressive.

Vue is the first library I've worked on where I've had multiple moments of "ugh, this problem is an awkward fit for this framework and this is going to hurt" quickly followed by a skim of the docs and finding an API that specifically foresees and smooths over my pain point.
