VUE is so successful. Who is the author of it? Here is a interview of the creator Evan You, a Chinese young man. It is interesting.
Between the Wires: An interview with Vue.js creator Evan You
One of a paragraph is:
Did you make any mistakes while building Vue that you hope to never make again?
“I have to completely rethink the problem in a certain way, but I think that’s just how software development goes because you would never get anything right just from the first try.”
Hm, I know, there are probably quite a few. To date, Vue has been rewritten from the ground up twice. Obviously, I rewrote it because the original implementation had problems that just could not be solved by gradually refractory. It’s like every six months I look at the code base from six months ago. I’ll be like, wow. How did this even work?
I have to completely rethink the problem in a certain way, but I think that’s just how software development goes because you would never get anything right just from the first try.
The journey of building Vue is also a journey of just growing as a developer, because over time I had to add new features, maintain it, fix bugs and ensure the whole ecosystem worked correctly together. It just naturally exposes you to all the problems you would run into as a software engineer. It’s just a learning process.
