Vue is awesome - we use it on most of our projects! It's great that you're learning full stack JS too as it's a great way to get backend and frontend experience without the costly time of learning a backend language too.

I'll also send you a copy of Andrew's AWS course straight to the DMs!

Well, with the abudance of choices, which are all good choices by the way, we went with Vue because:

  • The person who created the framework (Evan You) created the framework with DX (developer experience) in mind. Which means unlike the other frameworks from the big players, he really focused on making everything as readable and verbose as possible.
  • The above point makes on boarding much easier, as it allows to bring Vue developers into the team and train juniors up to use it in much less time. A framework is no substitute for good code, but Vue gave us the best results in that area (we tested this!)
  • It is quite un-opinionated in structure and we didn't want to tie ourselves down to one way of developing. It plays great with our existing tools and classes and that's perfect for us.
