Please stop the fanboyism. OP did not say there was anything wrong with Vue, but asked if there was any specific reason it was chosen, and suggested they try something that comes with good preconfigured defaults to avoid being overwhelmed by all the choices. Which you completely fail to address in your canned sales pitch.

What are you on about? I cited two specific reasons: the excellent documentation and easy syntax which made the learning process go very smoothly. You seem to be doing exactly what you accused me of doing. Are you suggesting that React and Angular both have "good preconfigured defaults" and Vue does not?

Being overwhelmed by all the choices is a valid concern which is why I find it strange for you to be suggesting OP switches to another framework when he has already started with Vue.

Vue comes with good preconfigured defaults, see vue-cli;

Incidentally, vue-cli predates create-react-app.

Recently I have created few tutorials on Vue.js. I comes from Angular JS 1 and 2 background. After few days of Vue.js, it seems very simple to begin with you.

If you are planning to build a side project, or dashboard kind of stuff so you can definitely give it a try. I feel it's like jquery :) little bit more concept to grasp.

Few video tutorials I am creating, you can watch and leave your comments:-

Great, that's actually useful information.

But you could have safely skipped the "first!" comment. Being first does not make you any more superior in the front-end world than it does in a youtube comment.

I couldn't help it, I'm sorry ;-). Although there is a point that Evan You has put a lot of effort into finessing the "developer experience" of using Vue. That includes vue-cli, "blessed" packages surrounding the main library (e.g. Vuex), being able to start using a script tag include if that's easiest, and clear documentation.

My "getting started" experience with React (which I use every day) was much more rocky. Admittedly this predates create-react-app.

first comment was useful

What about Ember CLI? Predates both of them.
