I am not sure that my question fit to the workplace or not, but I known no where to ask. I am confusing since this is my first time in big transitioning non-tech to partial-tech company. And I am placed in the tech-lead position.

I have full authority of select the tech stack since I myself can be able to finish system, backend, CI/CD, ML, frontend, and talk to customer. However, the company has former teammates. They use different tools from me. I use React because of the followings

Background:
1. Backed by big company
2. Opensource
3. ES6
4. I know boiler plate which has ready made TDD with ReduxReducer
5. I don't know VueJS, nor Angular

Hesitations:
One thing I am concern right now is re-using the former project component written in VueJS. I heard that on top most of the code you can refactor React to use interchangeably share with any Component no matter it is written from other framework.

In the mean time:
1. Practicing VueJS. To figure out pro and con and how to reuse it with React or even follow the team decision. Since existing member can give me a comment

Questions:
1. Should I stay using ReactJS or switch to VueJS?
2. What is the outcome of the first question?
3. Am I doing the best decision?

  • While they have both pros and cons...do not forget to check if the other team members know React or not. To be a teach lead is not only about yourself. Think how much resources you're wasting if other 5 people need to learn it, company might have better usages for that money. – Adriano Repetti Jun 12 at 6:28

Start with a proper research to understand your limitations. If it turns out you're limited to VueJS because of that component - you got your answer. If it's not a limitation - pick whatever technology you and your team are most comfortable with.

And, for as much as possible, do not marry your codebase to one single framework. Make sure your core business logic depends on abstractions and not implementation details. Design your system in such a way that you can replace the framework at a low cost.
