Welcome back after the break! Check out the official Vue.js roadmap for 2019!

Hello everybody!

Good to be back after the holidays break. I hope you had a great time during holidays and and an awesome New Year so far! 🎉

We received plenty of submissions through our submit-your-story page (too much to put in just one issue), that’s why we will take a few weeks to get through all of them. Thanks to everyone who submitted a story this way by the way! 💚 It makes our work so much easier.

As for New Year’s resolutions – here’s the official Vue roadmap for the first 3 quarters of 2019. You can use it to track the progress on version 3.0.

Cheers! — Damian Dulisz & An Phan
