<html>
    <head>
        <title>Hello World</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="app">
          {{ message }}
        </div>
        <script>
        var app = new Vue({
          el: '#app',
          data: {
            message: 'Hello Vue!'
          }
        })
        </script>
    </body>
</html>

Data-Binding

Let's create a Todo App!

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Vue Todo App</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="app">
      <ul>
        <li v-for="i in items">{{i}}</li>
      </ul>
      <footer>
      <input type="text" v-model="newItem" @keyup.enter="addItem">
      <button @click="addItem">Add</button>
      </footer>
    </div>
    <script>
        var app = new Vue({
          el: '#app',
          data: {
          	newItem: '',
          	items: [],
          },
          methods: {
            addItem() {
              this.items.push(this.newItem);
              this.newItem = "";
            }
          }
        })
    </script>
  </body>

</html>

List Rendering

Event Binding

2-Way Data-Binding

Uhm. That's a nice list, but…

…I want to mark items as 'done'.

<ul>
  <li v-for="(item, index) in items">
    <strike v-if="item.done">{{item.content}}</strike>
    <span v-else>{{item.content}}</span>
    <button @click="toggleItem(index)">toggle</button>
    <button @click="removeItem(index)">remove</button>
  </li>
</ul>
var app = new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
    newItem: '',
    items: [{content: 'foo', done: false}],
  },
  methods: {
    addItem() {
      this.items.push({content: this.newItem, done: false});
      this.newItem = "";
    },
    removeItem(i) {
      this.items.splice(i, 1);
    },
    toggleItem(i) {
    	this.items[i].done = !this.items[i].done;
    }
  }
})

Conditional Rendering

List Index

Complex Data

Let's get fancy!

  <div>{{numCompleted}} / {{items.length}} completed</div>
  <div class="progress">
    <div class="bar" :style="{ width: (numCompleted / items.length)*100 + '%'}"></div>
  </div>
  <ul>
    <li v-for="(item, index) in items">
      <input type="checkbox" v-model="item.done" />
      <span :class="{ done: item.done }">{{item.content}}</span>
      <button @click="removeItem(index)">remove</button>
    </li>
  </ul>
  computed: {
    numCompleted() {
      return this.items.reduce(function(total, item) {
      	return item.done ? ++total : total;
      }, 0);
    }
  }

Computed Properties

Style and Class Binding

Form Input Binding

.progress {
  width: 200px;
  height: 5px;
}
.bar {
  background-color: #0F0;
  height: 5px;
  display: block;
  transition: width ease 1s;
}
li .done {
  text-decoration: line-through;
  color: #666;
}

Sum it up

  • Data-Binding
  • 2-Way Data-Binding
  • List Rendering
  • Event Binding
  • Style and Class Binding
{{message}}
v-model
v-for="item in items"
@click @keyup
:style :class

Single File Components

What are Single File Components good for?

  • create small reusable components
  • HTML, CSS and JavaScript at one place
  • scoped CSS vs. global stylesheet
  • additional compile step needed
  • usage of es6, scss, typescript and others
index.html
src
├── App.vue
├── components
│   ├── NewItem.vue
│   ├── Progress.vue
│   └── TodoItem.vue
└── main.js

File Structure

each component in

separate .vue file

What do we need to change on our app?

main.js entrypoint for webpack

index.html

import Vue from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'

new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  render: h => h(App)
})
<!DOCTYPE html>

  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="app"></div>
    <script src="/dist/build.js"></script>

Hello World

Small App

structured component app

This way we can incrementally advance our application as it grows with us.

Thanks

Problems that arise with component based architetures

  • shared state (global state)
  • two distant components need to communicate with each other
