Why not use VueJs?

[LucaGabi]

Hi,

Why would I use this instead of VueJs? Dose it have any advantage?

Thanks.

Vue is based on rivets

Occasionally you need to integrate a templating and binding system in a crowded legacy environment, where it's easier to integrate something like rivets into existing template/MVC system than re-building and re-factoring large amounts of existing (working) code to bring in something like vue.

I second @brandonrobertz One example of such a framework is Shopify, where front end customizations are needed a lot, and with large datasets of products, orders etc. There is no templating engine for the front end, it uses a backend framework called liquid to populate values once, when the page is loaded, much like PHP or ASP.net. Rivets comes in very handy for such projects, otherwise its a jQuery nightmare!
