I just love Vue. Maybe I never gave react enough of a chance, but I've almost never had any issues with learning or developing using Vue. React has always felt like chore. I'm still probably technically a junior dev, so I haven't gotten too far into the weeds. But I was able to put together a fully functioning point of sale web app with dotnet core and vue, and I'm still not totally sure how it came together so beautifully.

Holy crap, you wrote what I was thinking, except I've done web development since 2000. I've ditched all other javascript frameworks and am now all Vue, all the time (with a little vanilla js thrown in when needed).

Coincidentally, I've built a .NET core web app as well, with Vue.js handling nearly the entire UI. It's lightening fast since I'm letting .NET handle the backend and Vue handle the frontend. I built the entire thing on my little Macbook Air. Hit me up if you want to talk shop sometime.

I'm sure the ruby, python, rust folks are snickering...but .NET Core + Vue.js is an A-List webdev stack as fas as I'm concerned.

Our teams at my work have recently adopted this stack. We're now building 4-5 apps this way and I couldn't be happier.

What makes .NET core particularly notable in this pairing? I don't think any Ruby/Python/etc folks will be snickering, but if all we're talking about is a REST API (or similar) connecting to a Vue frontend then the idea is pretty backend agnostic.

I have written a few .NET Core web apps, some with React frontends and one with a Vue frontend.

I am using Blazor for the first time in a .NET Core 3 app and I don't think I can ever go back to a JS Framework. If you like Vue then give Blazor a try, it's similar component-wise except Razor components functions are C# instead of JavaScript.

Only downside is browser support as client-side Blazor is experimental and compiled to WebAssembly. Server-side Blazor streaming is GA though, and it is widly supported if your consumers generally have fast connections, such as Enterprise uses.

I can’t seem to find messaging on here. My email is shanemkunz@gmail. I send you what I’ve been working on.

Vue lands in the human-centric tool bag. It feels pleasurable enough to write for you. It's probably not as solid as react but it doesn't feel like a chore.
