Vue Storefront 1.8 released; JHipster now supports Vue; What Hooks mean for Vue?

Hello!

Some interesting news this week, especially if you’re also working with Java. That’s because JHipster, a development platform for developing Java apps that use modern web frameworks for their front-end has now a blueprint for Vue.js. Still in beta, but looks very promising.

There’s also a great article about the introduction of “hooks” (inspired by React hooks) and what they mean for Vue.js, written by Sarah Drasner.

By the way – our news team (that is me, Gregg and Adam), will be in Amsterdam this week at the Vue.js Amsterdam conference. Come and say hi!

See you! — Damian Dulisz
