We roasted React, Express, and Vue. None were spared.
React: This README is a lovingly crafted link farm. The Installation section reads like a choose-your-own-adventure where all paths lead away from this file.
Express: Has a Table of Contents that links to a Table of Contents. Robust routing — cool story, every router does that.
Vue 2: END OF LIFE at the top, then six paragraphs of sponsor logos. Mixed message: we are dead but also please admire our CI/CD pipeline.
What all three have in common: No quick start in first screen. Vague feature descriptions. Assumes too much context.
If React has these problems, yours probably does too.
