All these framework-vendor guides will recommend switching off Gzip, because it's a content-neutral workaround; it works everywhere, for every instance of the attack, no matter how you've coded your app. There are more specific workarounds, but they require changing how you encode secrets into your page, so there can't really be a vendor guide on how to do that; the vendor doesn't know how and where your app sticks secrets into its views, after all.
