It saddens me nobody builds similar libraries for Angular.
- turnsout 2y agoYeah, for better or worse, the era of framework diversity is over. The industry has almost 100% converged on React.
- digging 2y agoThat sounds false to me. When was this era and what exactly did it look like? React has been dominant for around a decade, but Angular and Vue still see wide usage and Svelte is somewhat on the rise. (Although retention/interest in Angular has been going down.)[1] Highly anticipating State of JS 2023 data though...

- turnsout 2y agoI'm judging by what I see teams choosing for new projects—both dev shops and corporate/internal devs. Even 5 years ago they might have debated Vue vs React, but there's not even a discussion anymore.
- digging 2y agoSure, but how many teams are you observing? My company is split between Vue and React for different projects, and while greenfield new ones are getting React, Vue is not being deprecated here.
- turnsout 2y agoJust a few teams per year—extremely anecdotal. But it sounds like your company is in the same boat, with new projects going to React.
- KronisLV 2y agoI'm building the front ends for a few projects in Vue right now, it's quite pleasant! It's easy to work with, there's nice router and internationalization packages, ready made components with PrimeVue (though PrimeReact and PrimeNG are nice too; as well as other component libraries), PrimeFlex and Pinia for state management is wonderfully simple and scales pretty far. There's devtools for most browsers, the toolchain isn't super complex and while the ecosystem could be bigger, it's not inadequate either.
- LASR 2y agoAgreed. It's just so much easier to hire for React. It has become the lingua franca of client frameworks. There are still many teams that choose to use something else. But experience in React is most easily transferrable. Even if I had a project in Vue, I would still look for React expertise.
