GitHub Stars !== Usage: React Is Still Blowing Vue and Angular Away
No one I work with has ever even brought up the possibility of switching from React to Vue, let alone counting Github stars.<p>Compare to when React came out, it was immediate consensus that we need to switch from Backbone to React. When Angular gained popularity, we did not have an urge to switch because it felt unclear what the scope and direction of Angular actually was.<p>React (really JSX) solves the single problem of making HTML a part of JavaScript. For me, it's game over, they have solved the problem or came close enough to where I'm comfortable staying in the React ecosystem for the rest of my career.<p>With React there's no weird "v-if ng-if" template logic that you have to grapple with. To me, Handlebars already gave me enough taste of how horrible and limiting maintaining template logic outside of components is.<p>Just my take. No desire to even download Vue and try it out, I don't foresee any productivity gains from it.
