What began as a side project of a Google developer now shares the JS leaderboard with #React and #Angular... With the help of Sarah Drasner, Taylor Otwell, Thorsten Lünborg and many others from the Vue.js community, Evan You tells the story of how he fought against the odds to bring #Vuejs to life.

One of the things we love most as developers are our tools! In this episode, we talk about some of our favorite productivity tools, debate the merits of different keyboard layouts, how we work as developers and more. And yes, we even tackle the infamous tabs vs spaces debate.

The #4 episode with Divya Sasidharan about JAMstack, MCing conferences and Vuex is also available here.

While state machines used to be an obscure model for the front-end world, it has gained quite some traction lately, mostly thanks to XState. Instead of defining imperative UI flows, and lose track of their logic, state machines make them first-class citizens by letting you model them decoratively. They’re the closest thing to an actual flowchart, which is how a product manager or a UI designer would likely design the experience of a product. XState works within any JavaScript and TypeScript project, including Vue.

Vue.js 3 gives us two new tools - the Composition API and first class TypeScript support. In this screencast, we refactor the News component, which is written in JavaScript and the Options API, to TypeScript and the Composition API. We see and discuss the trade-offs, and try to decide which language and tool is more appropriate for the job.

A great collection of most of all the available resources to learn how to test Vue.js based applications.

An article inspired by the talk Jason Yu has given last year that shows how to build a Vue 3.0-like Reactivity API. The difference though, is that in this attempt Jason is actually using TypeScript (unlike during the talk). Really good read!

A example on how to use the inject and provide functions to create a i18n plugin using Composition API in Vue.js 3.

In this tutorial, we go through the process of building a Gridsome Source Plugin for ButterCMS from scratch. Gridsome allows us to fetch data from local files or external APIs and headless CMS and store the data in a GraphQL layer that lets us extract only the data we need and use it our Vue.js components.

The new Vue 3 composition API was created to address scaling issues with the options API. But is it still useful in smaller apps?

Although Nuxt ships with a built-in connect-based Node server you can replace it with any solution that you’d like and use Nuxt only as a rendering middleware. In this article, Jonas Galvez explores a setup where he uses Fastify to build the API part of a Nuxt app.
