"Some of Vue’s syntax will look very similar to AngularJS (e.g. v-if vs ng-if). This is because there were a lot of things that AngularJS got right and these were an inspiration for Vue very early in its development"
No, I think it would be fairer to say that it's like if AngularJS and React had a child and named it "Vue.js".
Because in the end, Vue.js has stuff in common with React, like the virtual DOM (you don't see this in Angular 2+) and has stuff in common with AngularJS (the good parts).
