Seriously, I feel the same way. I tried Angular1 5 years (?) ago and had to do ember for a gig. They were way too complicated, bloated, and terrible. Vue just

  The view and the presentational code that builds it are one, they belong to the same presentational layer and always have been. To artificially separate them was a major mistake of the old paradigm. Older approaches, like Knockout, Angular, Vue, etc., have to support presentational code as well, and obviously it is mixed into your html, but in a way that is severely limited and causes complications. Think of it, to be able to do your v-if, v-for, v-else, etc. an entire templating language had to be built, your view isn't part of the scope that that can access the data-model, so dependency injection had to be utilized, components in that model aren't components but directives that have to be registered to re-use one another. The complexity is actually mind-boggling. These are the exact reasons why React came about - it removes that complexity entirely. It is tiring having to learn frameworks and arbitrary extensions, googling for framework-specific solutions for every trouble that surfaces.
