I did an evaluation on the various frameworks 2 years ago, and it largely came down to only these 2 choices:
- React (if you want the largest support, packages, community, but sacrifice on performance)
- SolidJS [1] (best performance, composability, low-level primitives, but sacrifice on packages/community)
Every other choice like Angular, Vue, Svelte are just somewhere in between these 2 spectrums which I felt was not worth it. Either choose the one with the largest ecosystem or one which has the best primitives & performance.
- React (vdom, slow) (largest ecosystem)
- Vue (vdom, faster than react) (large community)
- Svelte (fine-grain, faster) (best dx pre-v5) (composability is still not as flexible in v5 compared to SolidJS) (small ecosystem)
- SolidJS (fine-grain, fastest, most consistent) (dx similar to react) (small ecosystem)
