React VS Vue.js

Early in my career, I struggled to understand how React’s state updates actually worked. Docs gave me the basics, but edge cases around batching were confusing. One weekend, I pulled up the React source code on GitHub and traced how state changes bubbled through the scheduler. Suddenly, the “weird bugs” I hit at work made sense because I wasn’t guessing anymore, I’d seen the engine.

3. Next.js and React (Frontend framework)

My primary passion is backend development, but I wanted to build a user-friendly frontend to complete this project. Given my experience with React, Next.js was the obvious choice due to its excellent documentation and ease of use.

Check out the React 19 Upgrade Guide for more details. Have fun coding, and share in the comments what you’re building with React 19! 🎉

At IVAO, we partially follow micro-services best practices. This means each business group (e.g., Flight tracking, Flight planning, Air Traffic controlling, Training) has its own NestJS API and ReactJS frontend. But we took a shortcut on the DB side, as we have quite some references across systems, especially for user IDs, airports, etc... We decided to have a single MariaDB instance while having a dedicated logical database for each API, so we still have a separation of concerns but we can guarantee data integrity with foreign keys across those databases.

React.js (fast, large ecosystem)

Tools: V0 by Vercel, shadcn/ui, React, Tailwind CSS V0 turns natural language prompts into ready-to-use React + Tailwind UI code. Ask for “a responsive SaaS dashboard with a dark theme and collapsible sidebar” and you get production-ready code instantly, accessible, tweakable, and not locked into rigid templates.

But it does not deal with all the non-JSON objects, e.g. Map or other class instances that are not even JSON-serializable by default.

Best to use TypeScript, and ideally, it should only be needed to do such checks when dealing with foreign data.

When data comes from parsing JSON, the check above should be enough.

When authoring complicated library code that needs reflection, I think it's worth looking at Vue2's hilarous solution:

Recently, a ticket was added to our sprint with the goal of reducing packages with critical and high vulnerabilities in a legacy project. The task involved migrating a Vue 2 project using Vue CLI as the build tool to Vite.

Vue.js is a tool for building user interfaces. It's easy to use and works well for both small and big projects. I specifically love the team behind Vue and Nuxt! Highly recommend checking it out and giving it a try. It has 208k stars 🌟. Explore Vue.js here.

Vuejs

Vue.js is a big favorite for making websites because it's easy to use and fits in well with other stuff. Many people worldwide are using it, and the community keeps growing.

Vue has a thriving ecosystem with a wide range of third-party libraries and plugins available for extending its functionality. These libraries cover everything from state management to routing, making it easy for developers to find solutions to common problems and enhance their development workflow. As of this writing, Vue has 200k GitHub stars.
