Whether Vue or React is a more "complex" I think depends on how in depth you want to understand it. I could see that Vue is less complex to use, at least superficially, but I think it's way harder to understand. When I look at the guide and I see stuff like this: <div id="app-2"> <span v-bind:title="message"> Hover your mouse over me for a few seconds to see my dynamically bound title! </span> </div> I get immediately queasy about what Vue is doing. Does it parse the HTML? How exactly does scoping work? What sort of special classes and expressions can I put in the span, and in what manner will they be evaluated? In contrast, React is a JS library, and works like any other. JSX is weird for the first minute, but it's a very light transformation to the underlying JS, to the point where when I write it I can mentally see what JS functions I'm invoking, which therefore helps me understand all those things I mentioned before like scoping rules, what this will refer to, etc.
