So here it is – the official sneak peek of what’s to come in the upcoming 3.0 release of Vue.js.

TL;DR: smaller, faster, proxy-based reactivity, decoupled internal modules, written in TypeScript, custom render API, changes to render functions (though the template syntax stays 99% the same), and much more!

The long awaited Nuxt.js 2.0 release is finally here. Changes include the addition of create-nuxt-app, and an update to Webpack 4 & Babel 7. A full list of changes can be found here.

NativeScript-Vue 2.0 is here! Some of the important changes include: Vue-Devtools support, making all the NativeScript elements into Vue functional components (so they show in the devtools), Sidekick integration as well as support for NativeScript UI components. On top of all that – new docs!

In this article Harshal Patil goes through some less discussed functionalities and design decisions of Vue-Router, and how it compares to other routing solutions used in different frameworks.

Ian Johnson from Skilljar is sharing some of his experience on component architecture. Ian is focusing on making the app approachable for developers that might not be familiar with Vue and JavaScript development in general.

Considering that Vue itself is being rewritten in TypeScript, it might be a good idea to give the language a try. Arnav Gupta started a new series about building Vue apps with TypeScript – the first part is about using the classes for creating components.

When building Vue apps we often don’t have the time to build all the commonly used components from scratch. Instead we can pick from several UI frameworks built on top of Vue, like Vuetify, ElementUI, Buefy or Bootstrap-Vue. Or even full blown frameworks like Quasar. In this article Andi Pavllo goes through some of the more popular options and evaluates their pros and cons.

Speaking of UI frameworks – here’s an article by Aravind Voggu that will show you how to set up UIkit through the new Vue CLI 3.0.
