Vue is on the same level as React. So you're taking bare library and comparing its features to a powerful meta-framework build atop another. What's the point? Why not doing fair Next.js vs. Nuxt comparsion?

Why compare Vue with Next? You should either compare React and Vue or Next and Nuxt. Comparing Vue and Next is confusing and misleading, and erodes the credibility of the article in a big way.

This comparison makes no sense at all. They are different technologies. I agree with the observations made in the other comments. I read your response in the other comments and it still doesn't make sense; your argument is invalid.

You're making things way more confusing and complicated than they need to be - the proper comparison would be Next.js vs Nuxt.js, or React vs Vue ...

Next.js vs Vue is like comparing apples and organges - as a result, you now need to qualify almost every bullet point with "but Vue can also do this - just add Nuxt.js!"

Sorry, but this is a little bit comical (and very obvious) ...

P.S. and why copy/paste exactly the same answer (2 times) as a reply to two different comments? With the original commenter being right, and your reply not really making any sense ...

Another article that does nothing to help people and only create pointless noise. The fact that all of the commenters know more about this topic than the author and that you wrote (or generated) an entire article without noticing the obvious comparison flaws shows that your attention to detail and practical development experience is clear lacking.
