The author says they don't like purity and immutability, because it limits their ability to "get stuff done". But in the long run you get many benefits, whether you have 1000 developers or one. Namely that a whole class of bugs will be eliminated and you can do quick reference comparisons to tell if something changed. Every time I go to look at Vue I can't stand the fact that it DOESN'T have JSX. I've used every temp…
The arguments against JSX and React requiring many small components are very surface level and sound like "we couldn't figure out how to make it work for us so it must be impossible". 1. This was mentioned already, but, yes, you can use ternaries and boolean logic for simple conditionals (loggedIn && Logout || Login ) 2. When you need more markup, put them in an if-else statement in the same render function. render()…
I think your comment just proves the point of the original post. Your examples are still not good enough for me in terms of syntax and real work with html guys (specifically, has some quirks). I've gone through these things, and the pain&negativity about Angular 1 which translates to negativity to all template engines was also mentioned in the post.
return ( { selected ? : null } );
or
let children = []; if (selected) children.push(); if (blah) children.push(); return ( { children } );
or
const bar = selected ? : null; return ( { bar } );

Nor have I seen a seen a good review of tooling that provides a good path for someone who wants to try it out.
What I do see, are arguments that "it can do that too if you only knew how to use it!" That and a lot of sample code that embeds html within the code, which frankly looks like a delegation nightmare. (and scattered postings about documentation not being up to date)
You could downvote me. Or... you could point me to a helpful and up to date resource or recent posting that is actually helpful. Or better yet, write one.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Vue is a frontend framework . jQuery is a library , with a very specific goal (DOM access) What happened when you were using jQuery, is you created your own homegrown "framework" on top of it. Thats what you should be comparing Vue with, not jQuery.
I don't deny it. What surprised me was that Vue, a framework, was easier to learn than jQuery, a library. In my experience elsewhere it's usually the other way around. Like learning how to use Python's Requests vs. learning how to use Python's Flask.

Not sure I understand your 3rd pattern, what does const {LoginForm} = this; do?
var o = {p: 42, q: true};
var {p, q} = o;
console.log(p); // 42
console.log(q); // trueThe author says they don't like purity and immutability, because it limits their ability to "get stuff done".

Out of curiosity, one reason the author mentions (and I know, it's not his selling point) which I've seen others reiterate is that React's render() method doesn't support if statements. I know you can write something like the code below in React, so what exactly does that criticism refer to? function Home(props) { return ( HELLO Duis a turpis sed lacus dapibus elementum sed eu lectus. { (() => { if (props.location.qu…
To be fair, writing if statements in JSX is messier than it should be, but this is the fault of JavaScript and not JSX. If statements don't return anything, so we have to either create an immediately executed anonymous function (like you showed) or use a ternary operator. I'm pretty sure the author knows that you can put if statements in JSX but is frustrated that it requires boilerplate, which I think is a valid cri…

Wow. Do people consider this kind of coding acceptable now? We spent decades trying to separate templates, business logic, and inlined JS, and you managed to cram all three into a short snippet.
One of the most impressive thing about Vue.js was the ability of the framework to enter a field saturated with dozens of options, that was becoming dominated by a well-resourced oligopoly (Angular, React), and still win over developers jaded from Javascript-fatigue. The give-a-shit factor from Evan (the creator) is extremely high and was key to its success. Inspiration for anyone building a product in an established…
The reason for its success is good documentation and simplicity. Anything like this aims to empower users, and get the fuck out of the way and let them do their work has a space no matter how crowded the market. Angular and React want you to do things their way and therefore get in the way, and then make you do a bunch of work to make things work their way. I have a PHP app that I rigged up using Vue.js. Took two day…
