I couldn't help it, I'm sorry ;-). Although there is a point that Evan You has put a lot of effort into finessing the "developer experience" of using Vue. That includes vue-cli, "blessed" packages surrounding the main library (e.g. Vuex), being able to start using a script tag include if that's easiest, and clear documentation.

My "getting started" experience with React (which I use every day) was much more rocky. Admittedly this predates create-react-app.
