Personally I find VueJS a joy to work with on the FE. It eschews some of the complexities that come with React and gives you a comprehensive and simple state based component rendering framework.

Vue's cli tool means that you don't have to worry about installing all the dependencies, just answer the setup questions about how you like to work and it installs everything for you: Typescipt, sass, babel, eslint.. all of it installed for you.

I absolutely do not yearn for the SSR template days. Sure when you're composing green field it's straight forward, but when you're coming into a complex project 3 years later, figuring out where on earth the JS is that's impacting this particular screen (or causing this particular bug) can be an absolutely nightmare. I'll be sticking with Vue and Typescript and not reverting to jQuery, thank you very much.

I agree, Vue has made me interested in frontend development for the first time since jQuery!
