I'm currently struggling to pick between Vue and React for my next project. It will be a kind-of campus social network and will use Laravel.

I already know React but I'm wondering how well it goes with Laravel and wether I should use my time on Vue instead?

Apologies for being so vague but hopefully someone will understand. Thanks!

Anything is interchangeable. Do notice that Vue is the primary frontend js stack of choice for Laravel

@AleCx04 That was the reason that I was leaning to Vue. This would be a set back time-wise however.

Using a standard stack always help when doing research or when you're searching for solutions. I've never used React, but I use Vue daily at work, and personally I think it's great.

If you’re already confident with your react go vue so your cv looks nicer

As a laravel dev I'd say vue by habit. But both could do the job

For pure coding both probably work equally good, but if vue is more common with laravell you will have a lot easier to find answers where they intersect and there are probably a lot more tools for boilerplate stuff :)

So try out vue and if you find you cannot stand it, then switch to react.

Knowing both will be a strength.

Thanks for the answers. I'm going to go with Vue for now and see how it goes.

> but I'm wondering how well it goes with Laravel

The answer is that it doesn't matter. Your laravel app will be an API, or in other words a black box which you send data to and receive data back from. Your frontend doens't care how that black box works so weather it's in laravel, symphony, express, .NET core, whatever it doesn't matter to it.

Doesnt really matter. Its just an API you are talking to. So if you wanna go fast use react. If you wanna learn new stuff go vue / angular. All of them are good choices these days
