Vue
Vue.js is a progressive JavaScript framework for interactive web interfaces and single-page applications. It integrates step by step alongside existing code and that comes in handy when you keep developing a frontend that already runs.
Build fast, reactive user interfaces.
Easy to connect to existing code.
Clear API and good documentation.
The interactive user
In the past, websites were made up of a homepage and then users would click through to other individual pages. Today, however, we are seeing many Glossary · In briefsingle-page applicationA single-page application (SPA) loads one web document and then updates the required content without fetching a complete new page for every view.Read more. A good example of this is Facebook. On these types of pages users do not have to reload a new page when performing some action; all interaction occurs in the original page.

Action, reaction
Vue.js (often referred to as "Vue" to insiders) is just a Glossary · In brieffrontendThe frontend is the part of a website or application that users see and operate, such as pages, buttons, forms and interactive screens.Read more framework. Vue is a JavaScript front end framework that gives developers the tools they need to make the part of an app that the users see as fast as possible. When you are trying to find the right cell phone for example, you want the ability to have users be able to check off features of one or two phones in comparison quickly. What we mean by this is that you want your application to respond to whatever action the user performs as soon as they do it. And most importantly without waiting on loading. This is where Vue comes into play.
Well-known Vue advocates
Vue.js has fans in Japan; it's used by Nintendo for their site. On that site you can see what games are available to download and purchase from your account. Vue.js does all the work behind this. It's also used on Facebook. Facebook makes use of React mostly, however some pieces of the front-end news feed run using Vue.js.
Tuned to the latest developments
Vue is relatively new and therefore has many benefits, specifically by utilizing newer tech such as ES6 and Webpack and thus meeting all the requirements of the latest innovations. Wherein jQuery would require multiple lines of code to accomplish something as basic as a zoom function, Vue can be accomplished in just a couple of lines. The primary objective when developing Vue was to enable users to navigate through an online application as rapidly as possible and provide them with the best efficiency.
Everyone happy
Not only do users benefit from Vue. The fact that I am able to program with ease is due to Vue. Due to Vue, I am able to create clean, crisp, yet easy-to-write code. Most problems will have an answer already available when using Vue. This allows me to develop the same type of code that many other developers can understand, which leads to my own development being significantly reduced by fewer errors, and ultimately results in the ability to build rock-solid applications, which allow for continued application development.
Key takeaways
Vue.js combines well with other frameworks, for example React, so you can tune a project tightly to very specific requirements.
That flexibility makes it fairly simple to build apps that need to run on multiple platforms.
Especially suited to light web apps, think single page applications and interfaces. What it still lacks is the scalability to put down truly large, complex applications.
