Having used both, I'm convinced that if Facebook had created Vue and Evan had created React, Vue would have absolutely crushed React. React's popularity, like Angular before it, is largely due to the 800-lb. gorilla behind it. I'm not saying it's junk, just saying that Vue can do what React can do and more, and Vue's performance is excellent. It's a pleasure to work with.

That's true. Vue is much faster than React. Like I mentioned, React gained popularity mainly because of Facebook. Just because it's backed by big companies doesn't necessarily make it superior.
