With Vue... a lot is happening. While many brilliant programmers have developed and use Vue _ much of Vue is not easily grasped _ until this book. By giving context _ complete code snippets _ in color _ Vue comes alive _ in some new ways. This book is something of the "Bible" or "Missing Manual". The tips, tricks, and especially code explanations are much appreciated. Having spent many hours learning and troubleshooting Vue code _ watching and re-watching video tutorials _ being able to look things up in a book _ a reference _ makes development FASTER. I am now hot on culling this book to make my current Vue project _ way better _ faster _ stronger.

This was a great book. If you already know the basics of Vue this is the book for you to take those skills to the next level. If you are new to Vue I would have to recommend another book for learning the basics. However the author was very clear in the explanations of each section and each project helps you build upon your skills that help you learn some more advanced skills and what kind of projects you can create.

I am very impressed with the content of the book. As a backend developer myself, I always wanted to get started with front end. I find Vue.js to be a very lean and popular library.The book not only walk you through the basics from creating an Vue application to publishing. It also includes information on how to take your skill to the next level with information on Unit Testing and End-To-End testing, skills that is crucial for professionals to have when building applications for businesses.I would recommend this book to beginners that want to get into front end developing and professionals like myself that want to learn an extra skill on the side. I would recommend not to skip chapters even if you are skilled with front-end development, some of the chapters covers the Vue.js specifics for data biding and styling which is crucial for understanding the chapters that follows.

This book is very friendly to beginners. There are tons of examples on the various concepts of Vue and there's a lot of starter code to work through and reference. I think the comparisons to other frameworks could have been done a bit more in detail and likely with some sort of graphical element. I appreciated the author showing how to setup different styling aspects as sometimes that can be a tricky thing.As someone who has never thoroughly worked with Vue, I can say I am more confident with the framework after having worked through this book.

Moyashi Apr 08, 2021

This is the best vue book for me so far.I'm working on frontend with Vue.js, and I think I could save a lot of time if I read this before starting the project...For some reasons some vue books introduce single file component in chapter 3 or 4, saying "Hey guys, what you learned in chapter 1 and 2 are actually not used in practical use, now let's learn it this chapter!".This book introduces it from the beginning and it saves a lot of time!Especially I like chapter 9-11, which are about vuex, and not thoroughly introduced in other books.
