As a leading custom web development company well-versed in both Vue.js and React, we value both frameworks for different reasons. But one of the stand-out aspects of Vue.js is that it takes the best features of React (and Angular, too), simplifies them, and delivers an excellent overall perfect user experience. Here’s a snapshot of the pros and cons of Vue.js:
Vue.js advantages:
Developers love how lightweight and simplified Vue.js is as a development tool: Because Vue.js makes it easy to build custom apps from scratch and scale existing apps and integrate multiple projects at once, the framework empowers developers to work quickly, accurately, and hassle-free. Exceptional performance: Thanks to its sleek design, Vue.js is fast and adaptable. Notably, the framework features an innate ability to adopt parts of its technology incrementally, which helps ensure its long-term future. Smartly structured code: The modular aspect of the framework means that each code component is stored in discrete files. This makes it much simpler to read and maintain. Excellent user documentation and a vibrant community: Vue.js is unique among other JavaScript frameworks in that it provides very detailed documentation for developers. And the community has thousands of dedicated developers dedicated to collaborating and optimizing the Vue.js user experience.
Vue.js limitations:
A relatively small pool of skilled developers: Vue.js is a newer entrant to the JavaScript ecosystem, so finding experienced Vue.js developers for hire can be frustrating. (This is why it is advised to work with a Vue.js development company with a team of vetted developers.) Narrower capabilities: Compared to the older, more expansive frameworks like Angular and React, there’s no question Vue.js is more limited — especially in terms of plug-ins and components. Language barrier: Vue.js was authored by Chinese developers, so much of the documentation and community are written in Chinese. That means instruction manuals and forum chats must be translated for non-native speakers.
