I also came to vue from riot, and now find myself much more productive with vue. stick with it. and check out nuxt for out of the box server-side rendering, another thing that was a bit tricky with riot.

I can't speak for OP, but microsoft hasn't had the best relationship with open source in the past,[1] and they are a pretty litigious company.[2] however, their strategy seems to have changed significantly in recent years and I se
