I have the same tendency, Vue become UI logic only and business logic is just in one place, it sounds so appealing. But I had a think, if I really want centralisation I could use the root state of my app, it certainly makes things clearer what is local to my component and what is global.

I have to say state management responsibilities are so very confusing in modern JavaScript!

Flux pattern is not intuitive, mostly from the point of view of people like us used to classic one way MVC I admit.

Like they said,

Vuex is like glasses. You will now when you need it.

And I think this is brilliantly said, because it should just make sense to you or you should not use it because it would become less productive than without.

In the end, like you said it is very suitable for architectures where you have a good separation between your UI (Vue) and your business (whatever server side programming language that serves data via a REST/GraphQL API) 😉
