I quit my tech job in 2020 to learn new technologies and build my own startup - I made a HUGE bet on Vue and kinda regret it. In the first half of 2021, I dove deep into Vue, Vuex, Nuxt.js (basically Next.js), Gridsome (basically Gatsby.js), and even coded a startup idea using Vue + Electron + FFmpeg[0] before moving to React. Three main reasons for this switch: - Community Support: React has better support for lots of JS libraries. For example, I made a markdown editor which required the use of CodeMirror and the React NPM library for that was updated 1 year ago while the Vue library was updated 3 years ago. There's a lot of international support for Vue and some of the NPM libraries (like the CodeMirror one) are partially (or fully) documented in Chinese so this is a drawback as well. - Typescript: Vue 3 is built from the bottom up with TypeScript but it was only released in September 2020. Most of the community thinks Vue 3 is better than Vue 2 in TS support, but still not as good as React. Additionally, since TS support has only recently been offered, libraries (like Nuxt.js) have not been updated with TS support. - Job Market: React is the clear winner whether you are building a startup (and looking to hire developers), or want to join a company (at least in the US). I think Vue has lots of potential to improve in all three areas but it's just not there right now. You can see my full thoughts on YouTube[1].
