Ok, so I've built stuff in Vue.js, React and Angular and I need to understand all the rage. I mean, Vue.js is just like Angular but with less features? I like that it's slimmer, don't get me wrong, but I just don't understand the "woah, Vue.js is the shit!" when we've had Angular for so long. I put this in contrast to React where it's a completely new concept.

Agreed, I feel like I'm missing something here. I had thought that react "won" over angular because people generally preferred one-way data flow vs. angular's two-way data bindings. At least for me, that's one of the biggest reasons why I feel like I understand react better than angular. It's a little verbose at times, but it does make it pretty easy to follow. And it looks like Vue.js is a two-way data binding frame…

Actually, Vue has one way binding by default when dealing with Components, in that way, it's very similar to React: http://vuejs.org/guide/components.html#One-Way-Data-Flow
