I find Angular much easier to reason about than the current state of React/Next. Which is funny because the biggest criticism of Angular years ago was its learning curve. Yet React seems to have become even more convoluted.
React and angular both had much bigger learning curves than vue. But between google and Facebook, I don’t think vie stood a chance popularity wise, even though I think it was the better of the frameworks at the time.
Vue didn't stand a chance? I think it's pretty popular, isn't it? The company behind it doesn't matter that much to the popularity.
Oh i dont think you remember when Facebook launched React at their big conference. It absolutely does matter.
I wasn't there, so no, I don't remember that. Thing is, plenty of technologies launched by large companies at big conferences have failed to catch on. And plenty that were created by just some people without a big corporation have been wildly successful.
