Ask HN: Easiest JavaScript front end framework for a back end dev?

Hello HN!

I'm a working as a NodeJS dev for past 2 years. I find working on frontend very tedious, this is the reason why I purchase themes as they already have custom components. For a personal project I've built the whole frontend using EJS to render HTML, the vanilla JS to do everything else.

I tried learning React but it was a steep learning curve for me. Now I want to convert the whole frontend app into a fast loading SPA. What framework is the easiest to learn?

So far I've run into these options: Svelte and VueJs.
