Intercooler.js – Simple AJAX Using HTML Attributes

I tried this library before but Vue does pretty much the same thing and is way more powerful. Additionally, starting out with Vue makes transitioning to a SPA much easier when needed.

I also encountered some bugs when mixing the 2 during a transition phase that broke my requests. If I had to start over again I would only use Vue starting with the drop in JS library (no webpack/preprocessing)

It may be worth mentioning that Vue is an entire framework with a crapload of features and caveats and whatnot and thus not exactly an equivalent of an especially flexible PJAX library which is the best definition I can come up with when defining Intercooler

Vue is not a framework, at least not in it's simplest form - drop in UI library.

I agree that Vue does much more than Intercooler and in theory, it could be seen as an overkill. But in reality, a developer will probably use it in conjunction with jQuery and then he might be better off replacing these two with Vue.js

The thing is literally called

  The Progressive
  JavaScript Framework

I mean, regardless of anecdotal specific usage, vue is a framework. And a nice one too! Just entirely too much for something that can be fulfilled by a simple pjax tool
