I hate writing react. I have much more enjoyable experience with vue or riot.

> I hate writing react.

Out of curiosity, what was the straw that broke the camel's back?

After a few hours of Vue / Riot I could sit and begin writing a full fledged app.

React for me was a bigger barrier to entry, i kept running into road blocks and searching google how to do things then everything is like "you need flux" or all these other things and I just got more confused and frustrated. Once you know it, its great, powerful, fast, a pleasure to use.

But I still prefer vue/riot. Simple easy straightforward.

Thanks for sharing. Enough people are hopping onto the React → Vue train for it to be worth looking into.

Yeah, the main problem with React is that you actually want React+MobX, not React+Flux :)
