Reading articles on different blogs, I noticed that many of them tell that also Netflix, Facebook and Alibaba started to use Vue.js for some internal projects, but I wasn’t able to find this out.

The websites in the list above use Vue.js, and you can check by yourself if you have installed the Vue.js devtools extension.

Conclusion

As you can notice, some of the biggest companies started to use Vue.js, some of them for the main product and some for secondary projects.

This means that the interest in Vue.js is growing up very fast, and with the features of version 3 (you can read more here about Vue 3.0 updates) that should be released in 2020, this framework is going to be the biggest competitor of React.
