The title is self-explanatory, but I’ll explain it again. ATM, Fusion is at v0.3-dev.1 (publicly, it is v0.2).

Fusion was made for simpler code and it is much more simpler than react-lua (better version of legacy roact).

When using react-lua:

PROS:

  • Stable and maintained
  • Provides more features

CONS:

  • Not beginer friendly
  • Not an all in one solution for UI development

When using fusion:

PROS:

  • Very beginer friendly
  • An all in one solution for UI Development

CONS:

  • Not fully stable
  • Provides minimum features

Here’s my Q. I have no problem with using either of them, but the question remains; which one?

I’d recommend using React-Lua; once you get to know it it’s very easy to port UI over from JavaScript and web development, and it’s very mature (lots of docs, tutorials, videos). Fusion isn’t super mature yet; there’s still some things that need to be ironed out. If you don’t know how to use React-Lua I’d recommend learning the core principles and concepts of React first.
