Is a todo app really a good way to compare any kind of language or framework?
I work with several large apps, some in Vue and some in React. After the learning curve, they are more or less the same. They solve the same problem, more often than not in the same way (or rather using the same concepts). I don't think either is better or worse, or introduces significantly more or less code.
The one big different I have taken away from my experiences with both is React is more approachable for "developer" types, who are big on unit tests and design patterns. Vue is more approachable for people coming from a design background, partly because of its (not so much once you understand how it works) "magic" two way binding and single file components (which let you write <script> <template> and <style> inside a single file, which is way designers are used to).
If I know the app will have more designers, or less experienced developers, I think Vue is a good choice. If it will be built mostly by more developer types, React seems like a good choice. Once you know one, though, it's very easy to pick the other one up.
