I came across Vue through Laravel and I think they are definitely the best frameworks for their own language (JS and PHP). And the best part is that with the latest versions (2.0 and 5.3) they are working really nice together. Almost as if they were part of the same ecosystem.

It's incredible how easy it has become to make a new web app that has everything you need (registration, authentication, api, JWT, notifications,...) with just one command line (laravel new project). It's a huge jumpstart that allows you to focus on what's really important and forget about all the annoying boilerplate.

And since Vue.js is so well integrated with Laravel, you get all the benefits of the back-end also on the front-end. With all the authentication and API with JWT (and much more) ready to go, it becomes also a great way for newcomers to learn using Vue and play around with it.

These are 2 great videos of Evan You (creator of Vue.js) from Laracon 2016 https://streamacon.com/video/laracon-us/evan-you-vuejs-works... https://streamacon.com/video/laracon-us/evan-you-vue-router-...
