React vs. Vue: JavaScript framework wars

I have some problems with a few parts of this article. First, I have about a year of production experience with both React and Vue, so I'm in a valid position to compare without bias. I started off learning React outside of work but then our development team decided to go with Vue because of the good fit for our existing SPA for a few reasons. Honestly we could have gone with React and been fine, both options are great. So I was forced to learn Vue, but I continued learning and using React for side projects. Here is the truth, most developers will not spend as much time with both frameworks as I have, what I see more often is whichever framework they learn first, they stick with and will not even be open to trying the other, it has turned in to some kind of cult war on both sides I'm sorry to say. The reality is they are both awesome awesome options, they have very similar approaches to solving the JavaScript client-side architecture problem that us JS devs have been dealing with for years. We are lucky that the community has finally settled on just two options instead of 20 plus. Yes there are syntax differences and a few other differences but a good developer will be able to build any scalable application with either choice. When the author says "The fact that React gives you more control over your application architecture is the single most reason why it is easier in React to scale up your application". First of all please, if you are going to publish something and be taken seriously, check your grammar, use Grammerly or whatever! Back to what's important: What are you talking about "control over your application"? You have the same control over your app regardless of whether or not you use templates or pure JS element creation. Both approaches are 100% scalable. There is nothing about templating that makes an application more difficult to scale. On the flip side "It’s easier to update data with Vue than React" - um not really. The persistence process in Vue is a little more direct and simpler, but that's all under the hood, the shadow DOM implementations are also different but again it makes no difference for the developer. I have never had to update data in React and thought "wow this is so much easier in Vue", it comes down to how well you have built your application. I think a lot of developers really don't know how to build robust, scalable and innovative applications, so they blame that shortcoming on whatever framework they are using. Not mentioned in this article but something I've seen a lot from "react-leaning" developers is "Vue is easier to learn but React is more powerful" and I can tell you that is garbage. Vue is JUST as powerful as React, guys, they are thin view-layer frameworks, there is SO much more involved in your application than React or Vue. Vue may seem a little easier to learn because the templating approach is familiar, but I personally had no problem learning React, in fact it was a pleasure learning both frameworks, they are both intuitive and well-thought out and they are both getting better ever week. Listen developers, get over this whole React or Vue thing and GET ON with your project, the view-layer is important but there are other equally important pieces of your app that you need to figure out. For example, how are your modules going to communicate? Pub/Sub? If so what approach are you going to take? What are you using for auth? What about middle tier, are you going REST? What about GraphQL? There are hundred other important things that I haven't mentioned, so I think to summarize, here is my advise. Spend 30 days learning each framework, force yourself to do it. Build the same app in both and see which one you prefer, I ended up having to make a choice and you will to, but be warned, they are BOTH great so it almost doesn't matter which one you choose, you are going to win if you do it right. Keep up the good fight people!
