Accepted

## Context

* React is currently one of the most popular frameworks.
* It offers a vast ecosystem.
* It pioneered a lot of concepts that have been adopted by other frameworks and dominate how we currently think about
frontend-development
* The virtual-dom is an intriguing solution to the problem of cache-invalidation as pertaining to UI-systems,
see: https://hackernoon.com/computed-state-the-model-view-problem-9cbe8cf8486f
* From alternative frameworks only VueJs is similarly interesting and will be used in another side-project.

## Decision
