One App 5 Frameworks - Chapter 2: Vue

Vue is a lightweight, easy-to-learn JavaScript framework that's great for building user interfaces. It has a simple syntax and a reactive data model, making it easy to build dynamic, interactive applications.

Learning Curve

In my experience, Vue has the lowest learning curve of the three frameworks. Its simple syntax and clear documentation make it easy to get started, even for developers who are new to front-end development.

Angular, on the other hand, has a much steeper learning curve. It has a lot of features and concepts to master, and it can be overwhelming for developers who are new to the framework.

React falls somewhere in between, with a moderate learning curve. It's relatively easy to pick up, but you'll need to use third-party libraries to add additional functionality.

Performance

When it comes to performance and scalability, all three frameworks are capable of building high-performance applications.

That said, Vue has a reputation for being particularly fast, thanks to its lightweight design and efficient rendering engine. Angular and React are also fast, but they may require more optimization to achieve the same level of performance as Vue.

Developer Experience

Vue has a simple syntax and a clear separation of concerns between the template, script, and style, making it easy to understand and maintain.

I used Pinia as a store for the application I built, Its very lightweight and integrates very well with vue3.

Conclusion

Vue is a very strong recommendation from me if you want to learn web development and don't have the time to explore and cherry pick all the options that react has to offer.

with Nuxt serving all the SSR requirements, Vue will be one of the frameworks I will take into initial consideration while developing any web application.
