Vue-Land’s 1st anniversary! Vue-CLI has now a modern-mode

Hey,

do you know that Vue has a Discord server called Vue-Land? Do you know that this particular server just had its first anniversary? If you don’t, go to chat.vuejs.org and join the 35000 users from all over the world. It’s a great place to get help with your code problems, discuss possible solutions or simply help others.

Speaking of communities and helping others – CMTY v0.3 has just been released. It’s a platform that makes it easier to build and manage communities around open-source projects. Created by the Chopin brothers – the creators of Nuxt.js.

Oh, and you might want to check the new Mand Mobile UI-kit. It looks really neat!

The new release of Vue-CLI introduces the "Modern Mode", which makes it possible to compile your app into two different bundles. One for older browsers and one for evergreens. It will also automatically inject the required module and nomodule script tags in the final index.html. This will make modern browsers run the faster, smaller bundle that does not require a full Babel transpilation, while order browsers will fallback to the transpiled code.
