I just tried the pattern you recommended using Vue to build a simple Purchase Power Parity Calculator[1] as all current ones are outdated AFAIK.
I'm a least JS, 'You Might Not Need JQuery' kind of person so my complex web applications are all rendered in the back-end using Go but this particular website is static and this is the first time I've added some JS to it for a core function.
It does seem like Vue is a good fit for small front end reactive components like this, I'm refraining from passing further comments on the subject as this is the first time I've tried it.

- hardwaresofton 5y agoLove the project, it works well, loads fast, and I'm glad you didn't fall into any crazy frontend pitfalls. I think vue is great for small apps and "big" apps, and I think others would agree. I mostly disagree on just how much value some of the enterprise-grade patterns that show up have.
- Abishek_Muthian 5y agoThank you for checking it out! I agree with your use cases for Vue, It enables quick component development with minimal learning curve and good performance. A good choice for someone like me who had been holding out on modern JS libraries to offer better usability. There seems to be more lighter version of Vue[1] being developed[1] which seems to offer more flexibility in terms of how light we would want it to be and looks similar to Lit, Did you recommended Lit for the same reason?
