The concept of a virtual Document Object Model (DOM) was first introduced by the JavaScript framework React in 2013 and is still used today, both by React and other frameworks like Vue.js.

The React and Vue.js JavaScript libraries share some of the best ideas in web development. Which should you choose?

Lastly, Vue framework is one of the more approachable reactive frameworks and that concept is felt from the start. Template files are literally HTML with handlebar-style JavaScript interpolation.

Web frameworks often use a virtual DOM to keep track of current UI elements. To combat performance issues, Vue.js closely couples its runtime and compiler.

Vue.js, which has been positioned as a rival to Facebook’s popular React JavaScript library, has moved to a 2.0 release, featuring a redone rendering layer for better performance.
