Prettier now supports Vue templates! Incoming VueVixens workshops; one week until VueConf Toronto and more!

Hello,

great news – Prettier now fully supports Vue templates. 🎉This means auto-formatting for template features like v-for, slot-scope and event handlers. All thanks to the awesome work by @ikatyang. 👏

Just a week until VueConf Toronto! I’m looking at the fantastic line-up of speakers right now and I wish I could attend. 😥 It’s going to be a great event!

Speaking of events – there are multiple incoming VueVixens workshops in the next 30 days that you might be interested in – check out this tweet by Natalia Tepluhina for details.
