Agreed with this. I use both React and Vue intensively, day to day. React and Vue both have pros and cons, but I would argue it's actually easier to optimize Vue apps.

Vue's reactive nature actually is superior, because something like Redux requires destroying, regenerating, and messaging around entire objects. This can create serious problems when, for example, trying to use Chrome APIs or manage component renders.

Also, although JSX is nice for developers, it's not friendly to designers. Vue, however, supports single file components that are very designer-friendly.

FWIW, Alibaba began creating their own native framework with Vue called Weex, which is now part of the Apache project. https://weex.apache.org/

Redux is not actually necessary for React, you can manage state without it.

Can you clarify how Redux causes issues in those scenarios?
