    > Vue is the most Javascripty of these frameworks

    I'm not sure the React folks would agree to that :)

    If this page is about components then there is a major omission here: Web Components. HTML custom elements are the way to go if you want to build reusable components that work in any framework. Custom elements are easy to write and are the way to go going forward, especially when Edge switches over to Chromium.

    I have always found the big 3 JavaScript frameworks to be three versions of the same thing with slight differences. As someone who as worked in frontend for a while I am vexed in why people think the skills from one framework don't translate to the others.

    I remember talking to someone about working on a project and they asked me if I had worked in Angular and I said no but I have worked in Vue and React to which I got a reply of "you should really learn angular."

    Component based frameworks are nothing new.

    Does anyone remember Java Server Faces? I hope not.

    Where does the author get the idea that it's ok to refer to people as "Old Fart" Programmers?
