Why Vue.js?
Why a new framework!?
Legacy = 'longer than 1 week'
The big 3
Open Source!
We need frameworks, mainly, because:
- They help us organize our codebase.
- They help us to keep the UI in sync with the state .
- They do things cleaner and more elegantly (DOM manipulation, models syncing, validation...).
-
We have better performance.
- They do automatic tasks for us: compiling, optimization, compression, code-splitting, tree-shaking, SSR...
What is Vue.js?
It is a View focused library for building user interfaces
🎥 Movie Time! 🍿
Gregg Pollack (Vue Mastery) and Evan You (Creator)
Introduces Single File Components
Not mandatory API, tho
*html
*js/*ts
*(s)css
What about SC?
MVVM
Virtual DOM
Not to confuse with Shadow DOM
isolated
DOM node
or custom element
Shadow
DOM
CSS
Reactive

"The meat" of a component
Native rendering
With Vue.js (and the power of modern building tools)
- we have really powerful applications 💪🏽
- real good, real quick 💃🏾
- that are flexible and performant 🚀
Personal Statement
- It super friendly with other libraries.
- It is ergonomic,
- easier to learn than others,
- and to understand.
- Has a great community.

A word about Angular
Simplest Vue.js example
<div id="simplest-example">
<h1>{{ whatever }}</h1>
</div>
new Vue({

1 Getting Started - installation
npm install --global vue-cli
>
2 Getting Started - Dev Tool!
3.1 Getting started - Syntax
<div id="app">
<span
v-if="seen"
>Now you see me</span>
</div>new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
seen: true // <----
}
});v-if
3.2 Getting started - Syntax
<div id="app">
<ol>
<li v-for="todo in todos">
{{ todo.text }}
</li>
</ol>
</div>new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
todos: [ // <----
{ text: 'Learn JavaScript' },
{ text: 'Learn Vue' },
{ text: 'Build something awesome' }
]
}
})v-for (in)
3.3 Getting started - Syntax
<!-- method handler -->
<button v-on:click="doThis"></button>
<!-- inline statement -->
<button v-on:click="doThat('hello', $event)"></button>
<!-- shorthand -->
<button @click="doThis"></button>
<!-- key modifier using keyAlias -->
<input @keyup.enter="onEnter">new Vue({
el: '#app',
// data: {},
methods: { // <----
doThat: function(...args) { /* ... */ }
}
})3.4 Getting started - Forms
<div id="app-6">
<p>{{ message }}</p>
<input v-model="message">
</div>new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
message: 'How vuetiful is that!'
}
})3.5 Data vs Computed Properties
<div id="app-6">
<p>{{ message }}</p>
<p>{{ message.split('').reverse().join('') }}</p>
</div>new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
message: 'I\'m the original message'
},
})<p>{{ reversedMessage }}</p> computed: {
reversedMessage: function () {
return this.message.split('').reverse().join('')
}
}
new Vue
import Vue from 'vue';
import App from './app';
import router from '@router';
import store from '@state/store';
import 'components/globals.js';
const app = new Vue({
router,
store,
render: h => h(App),
}).$mount('#app')
Organizing Components
Global vs Local
Image from docs
Local
import ComponentA from './ComponentA.vue' export default {
name: 'parent-component',
data() {/* ... */}, methods: {/* ... */}, components: { ComponentA }, };
Global
Vue.component('my-component', {
data() {/* ... */},
methods: {/* ... */},
// ...
});
// ES6 modules
