(just created an account to comment on this, because im in love with this framework and I always wonder why its so unknown and not much talked about)

Quasar

quasar.dev
Vue3 based frontend application framework

Pros

  • One codebase - all platforms: web (spa/ssr/pwa), mobile (cordova/capacitor), desktop (electron), browser extensions
  • Phenomenal documentation
  • ALL batteries included
  • Active and dedicated developer and community

Cons

  • Quite opinionated. Probably more suitable for startups, prototypes, PoCs, etc

If anyone knows Quasar I would be interested in other opinions. Am I missing something?

I've used quasar extensively with vue2 in almost all of my projects, It made me fall in love with vue. Everything just became so easy.

I still don't hear much about quasar even after they release big update with vue3. It is still so unknown to even vue community.

One Con i found out after using quasar for almost a whole year, is that I cannot use anything other thn quasar to build vue apps, like I just cannot, to me after a year it seems like quasar was the default vue thing. (ps: quasar is just a layer on vue and everything is basically vue syntax and nothing else I'm talking about UI and components side of things, I literally forgot how to build some component like text / image because I was in love with quasar components) lol
