Any general coders wondering about React as their first front end framework - just use Vue. It’s easier, makes quite a lot more sense, has a “one true way” approach regarding many topics and can be comfortably learnt in a day. It’s easier for others to understand your code too.
JSX yuck.
- cillian64 4y agoI’m an embedded/backend dev looking to tinker with some frontend stuff for the experience and out of curiosity. I’ve been leaning towards react because it’s so common and what my team use, but I’m finding it pretty hard to get into.
- pcthrowaway 4y agoWould you say Vue 2 or Vue 3 would be better for someone venturing into Vue? Also, have you used Svelte much?
- Hawxy 4y agoEasily Vue 3, the dev tooling/xp + docs are much better over Vue 2.
- randomsearch 4y agoOops yes this is a very good point I missed.
- randomsearch 4y agoVue 3 is more exciting, but I'm stuck on Vue 2 for my real work due to dependencies. Much of Vue 3 has been backported, and you can use Vue 3 like Vue 2, so it doesn't matter too much... probably go for 3 as it's the standard now. I've looked at Svelte. I was deterred by lack of ecosystem. Vue's is just big enough to be workable, I think Svelte doesn't offer enough to reach the Vue/React size - probably.
- rk06 4y agoVue 3. Apart from the fact that it is modern and has more features, It uses proxies, so it doesn’t have the vue2’s reactivity gotchas.
- sibeliuss 4y agoVue + JSX is amazing
