Thinking Too Hard

I got to pick up Vue for the first time in a long time (since Vue 2). It's a LITTLE weird that there are now several ways to interact with it (Options API vs Composition API with Single-File Components) but the new stuff feels great. I like this Svelte/Vue/Astro/Alpine family direction that feels more 'webby' than some other frameworks — as in it FEELS like I'm writing something closer to HTML/CSS/JS + a little bit of 🪄 MAGIC ✨ rather than something else entirely.
