This week we're joined by Sean Hunter, author of Aurelia in Action. He gives us the history as well as the current state of the Aurelia framework.

And, of course, here is the "Party Keynote" from KotlinConf 2017.
For better or worse, the industry has coalesced around the big three frameworks: Angular, React and Vue. Each framework has it's own strengths and weaknesses, and Vue has positioned itself nicely as a balance between the ultra-opinionated Angular and the laissez-faire React.
In this episode we discuss all three, why we're excited about Vue and why it won't replace Angular or React. More importantly, we discuss best practices, and how to evaluate and select the framework that's right for you. There's so much wisdom in this episode. If you're a web developer, don't miss this one!
