Ask HN: Did you switch from React to Vue last year due to the licensing dilemma?

Hey you quoted my point about escape hatches but forgot to respond, interested to hear your thoughts. I guess to the 1st point, yes and Vue js allows this smell while React doesn't.

Regarding 2nd point, I disagree it's narrow, it affects all methods for all components. But its not a big factor in deciding what framework to use.

React is just a tad more "standards compliant" when it comes to web development, in my opinion. And in web development standards matter a lot, even when the standards themselves may not be great...

I really like VueJS for what its worth, its still my favorite framework, but I'd bet my money on React in the same sense I would invest in Walmart even though its not the perfect business. The react ecosystem has a much higher learning curve also, to play devils advocate.

Sorry I responded but I forgot the newline.

In either case react is clearly the better ecosystem, but vue is a really, really solid framework itself.

We’ve hit our own limitations that we’ve had to work around, but imo most of the points you bring up have quite simple fixes.

Cheers!
