This is wonderful.

I recently spun up a horizon(http://horizon.io) project on Digital Ocean with a Vue.js front end, and it has been by far the best experience I've had with full stack javascript, ever.

I really hope things like this start getting Vue the hype it deserves, because even though I'm a JS churn hater, this is one of the good ones. Much much nicer and simpler to work with than React or Angular, but using the ideas that have made them both of them great and popular.

Same experience here. We've done a couple of projects with Angular and React in the past, then tried Vue one year ago and the learning curve was so much smoother !

Evan's focus seem to be on developer experience, and the result is really convincing, at least for me and my team.

Yeah, I've also had a really nice experience using Vue. It's easy enough for a non-front-end engineer to get started with. And at the same time I can bring in all the components I want and combine with Vuex to get a nicely structured application.

Vue reminds me of Ember, but with a few years worth of advantages: less legacy code, learnt from React's model, and more stable APIs over time. Progressively enhancing your site with Vue also seems a lot more straightforward.

Agreed, I hope it gains some more popularity going forward. Its a great alternative to React and Angular.
