VueJS does not have the backing of Facebook and cannot compete on that issue alone.

How does that matter? There are countless historical examples where larger organizations with plenty of funding lost to smaller opponent.

Ah, like how babel was able to compete with typescript despite typescript being funded by Microsoft and babel by community efforts

I choose Babel over Typescript, because Babel implements default Ecmascript (afaik). Typescript is mostly type-safe and welcoming for non-js (c#, maybe java) coders.

I've seen many enterprise chooses angular just because of Google. React is the similar in this subject.

Popularity and some-big-company's supports is most important thing for them.

E.g. Jenkins vs. Hudson

That's a very, very different example. Jenkins was an exodus by community members of an existing project. And Oracle didn't have the political will to keep up with Hudson anyway.

It's like comparing Vue with LibreOffice.

A counterexample here - Angular. I think, it is slowly becoming a piece of abandondware exactly because of Google's influence and backing.

Angular 1 was a framework, Angular 2 was a piece of a religious writing that people developed to pad their resumes.
