132Wednesday, February 27, 2019Huge improvement in new Vetur release; Go and get Linusborg a coffee!; Try out hooks with Erik Hanchett
Hey,
I hope you’re great! I’ve got some pretty neat updates for you, especially if you’re using VS Code and Vetur. Because if you do, you have to see the GIF in that tweet. The tool now autosuggests available props and attrs for the components that you use 🤯.
Also, Thorsten Lünborg AKA “Linusborg”, also known as the person closes to a real life-support for Vue, has started his Ko-fi page. This means, if he ever helped you (and if you use the official Vue forums, I’m pretty sure he did) you can now buy him a coffee there. ☕️
Enjoy, — Damian Dulisz

How to use asyncData to Integrate Contentful into Nuxt
Although I wouldn’t say that Contentful plus Nuxt.js equals Fire, I mean that would be dangerous. And our news page uses both those tools and works just fine. But I have to admit that knowing how to connect those two might come super useful the next time you will have to build a company page, portfolio or a blog. Or something completely different.
