For better or for worse, we are a pretty small team and don't need to poll since we can all attend a meeting and agree there.
Calling for outside opinions was also a half hearted plea for help :)
Is this an indication that we finally have to settle on another bug tracker? This has been discussed previously but I can't find any conclusions from those past discussions, hence I'm asking again. I do not intend to dismiss the hard work of those people working on StoryBoard in the slightest, but it does seem like StoryBoard as a project has never really taken off outside OpenStack and is having a hard time surviving, let alone growing, likely because of that along with the widespread use of forge-style tools (GitHub, GitLab) and more comprehensive project management tools (sigh, JIRA). I recall fungi (?) raising the idea of enabling the more forge'y features, including the issue tracker, of Gitea in the past, but there are also separate tools like (heaven forbid) Bugzilla, Trac, Mantis, etc. that we could use. Heck, Launchpad is still around and is still open source (though I recall there being other issues with that?). We've already made a tough decision recently, with the sunsetting of ask.o.o, and with the impending deprecation of Angular.js, perhaps this is as good a time as any to do the same with StoryBoard? /me goes back to logging in for the zillionth time while trying to triage OSC bugs :) Cheers, Stephen

Hello Everyone!
The StoryBoard team is looking at alternatives to Angular.js since its
going end of life. After some research, we've boiled all the options down to two possibilities:
Vue.js
or
React.js
Hello, Kendall!
This is likely the toughest question in the frontend universe at the moment. Both solutions are very well thought out and have solid ecosystems. Based on observed productivity both are good choices. Personally, I have done more Vue than React. I have added a few points in the etherpad. Angular is not a bad choice either but it involves much stronger bonding with the final product. The others leave more freedom of choice.
As for the verdict, I am afraid the best solution would be to run voting for parties interested in Storyboard development and just stick to the poll winner.

I am diving more deeply into researching those two options this week, but any opinions or feedback on your experiences with either of them would be helpful!
Here is the etherpad with our research so far[3].
Feel free to add opinions there or in response to this thread!
