Finishing up a project at work with Vue right now, and I gotta say it's really excellent to work with. Way more intuitive than some other frameworks out there.


To me it has the advantage that jQuery had, the product if a single developer with a huge community behind him but no large company imposing their agenda on the framework.


React isn't even a framework.


When most people talk about React, they aren't talking the single library, but rather, the ecosystem of libraries that enable you to build applications. Most "frameworks" are just a collection of libraries too - the difference is in branding, and most frameworks are really just a pre-built package.json/Gemfile/etc.

I'd venture to say that very few if any of the sites Facebook lists at https://github.com/facebook/react/wiki/sites-using-react are using "React the view library" by itself.


But does it also provide an alternative to React Native?


You can use Vue with Nativescript but at this point it's still early days

yes, weex[1], which is becoming some sort of apache project. it was formerly (?) an alibaba project, not actually sure on the specifics RE: changing of hands.

I hope they are very good, but it is not a good first impression if your UX framework web page looks like this on mobile:

I looked into this because I remembered weex having a different alibaba site[1]. it looks like weex became an ASF incubator project ~6 mos ago. around the same time, evan you (vue creator) mentioned on twitter (or maybe a github comment, I don't remember) that there is massive development going into weex right now. I would guess it'll be a few more months before we see a solid website with solid docs from ASF.

And also says "Get Invovled"


looks like weex uses `flow-bin` which is a BSD+PATENTS repo:

https://github.com/apache/incubator-weex/blob/master/package...

not sure, but I think that means users of weex are subject to BSD+PATENTS also


nativescript-vue


Try out weex
