In 2025, how do bundle size and initial load times compare among React, Vue, and Angular?

Looks at benchmarks measuring gzipped bundle size and First Contentful Paint (FCP) across the three frameworks.

According to recent real-world tests ([turn0search1]turn0search10]turn0search9]): • Vue has the smallest bundle (~20–35 KB) and fastest load (~150–300 ms FCP). • React delivers moderate bundle (~30–50 KB) and fastest FCP (~0.8 seconds). • Angular typically has the largest bundle size (~50–65 KB) and slower initial load (~400–800 ms).
