Vue.js is a JavaScript framework that allows you to create performant web applications. It boasts a smaller learning curve than its competitors and has detailed documentation with a variety of examples and use cases. Vue.js applications can be created with the Vue CLI or by including it in your page via a script tag, making it super-easy to use in projects without build systems.
In a similar way to other modern web frameworks/libraries, Vue.js is component driven, and this means that you can create self-contained units with their own view/data logic. This allows our application to scale as it gets larger because any changes can be encapsulated away from each other.
When scaling your application, state management is a hot topic in the frontend space, and Vue.js solves this with the Vuex library. This allows us to define actions within our application and act accordingly, giving us predictable state that can be used to form the basis of our user interface and other interactions.
This book explores all this and more, and it provides examples of how these principles can be implemented into new and old Vue.js applications.
