I learned alot from this book and refer back to it sometimes. I'd knock it a bit for the game example, which I didn't find helpful, and the index is awful. But those are small complaints. Overall, good book.

This is a very well designed tutorial-like book. It's methodologically correct, it introduces new concepts at slow pace with no unexplained forward-references. And it dives quite deeply into Vue, although it's by no means a reference. All projects (except, probably Castle game) could be a basis for your own in it's particular domain, with prod quality plugin set & opinionated tool set (like Stylus for CSS).Highly recommend this book. Real advices from real expert in this area.
