On: Why Vue (Not React) Is the New jQuery

[subie]

Vue is really nice with simple examples. It does everything how you'd expect, quickly, and with little code. When you start building more advanced things you'll need to completely buy into the framework and that's when Vue gets a lot less pretty. I think React and Angular 2 are far better framework to learn and commit to.

So yes Vue is the new jQuery in that you can built smalls things nicely but good luck wiring up a large app.

I disagree on the scalability of Vue / Vuex. I've found it to be quite flexible and simple to grok.

Fyi, Cocos Creator was built with Vue. That's not a small app: http://www.cocos.com/download/creator/

Could you provide some examples to issues related to application scale?

I'm not saying it has problems at scale. I just don't enjoy building large scale things with it. It feels like a hacked jQuery lib with Redux and Angular packed into it.
