they look pretty similar to me, one is kinda like js-in-html, the other is html-in-js, to each their own.

I'm talking more about the whole experience of building out a full app. How do I structure my codebase? Which packages should I use in 2017? It's a much more trivial exercise with vue if you're only doing frontend work occasionally and not as part of your normal job.

I have to point out that https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app is great if you do decide to go with React and want answers to aforementioned questions.
