React is more popular, which is a gift and a curse. It leads to a lot of amateur coding, which is quite bad, but if you just want to glue something together, you can find the parts.
Vue itself is both smaller and more full featured than React. To make a working React you need to add a lot of parts (React DOM, CRA, Redux, React Router, CSS in JS…) which are often only semi-official, whereas Vue has solutions either built in or officially supported.
I honestly wouldn’t recommend React per se to anyone who has a choice, but it’s good to be familiar with it to get a sense of how the trends are moving, and they often have ideas that inspire (built in or officially supported) parts of Vue.
