Will Vue.js become a giant like Angular or React?

For me personally, the biggest selling point is not having to evolve the skill set of design and layout. I'm a developer, not a designer, and the ROI on me learning the fine points of CSS is very low. I already know the bottom 80% of CSS, but who doesn't? It's the top 20% where the "magic" happens, as with so many things.

Pre-styled, if unremarkable componentry is what I need to deliver business outcomes. Bootstrap is made for people like me, but something like Swing would make it even easier.

Yeah, that's true. Devs spend too much time pixel-wrangling in the minutae of CSS.

But, for me, it's not just the styling, but the architecture and componentry for modeling out async, event-driven web apps in a more natural way. And, I think that's the piece you're referencing that Swing can add to Bootstrap-alone.

I would agree that the deep inheritance hierarchies in verbose OO environments like Java actually do make sense for UI work. I think that's the one area in which they actually do make sense. Otherwise, it's all mostly a fantastical contrivance that leads to far too much boilerplate.
