A Warm welcome to the course. My name is Sachin Bhatnagar and I'll be your mentor for this exciting and hands-on course on Vue.js. Feel free to interact with me using the forums or private messaging or directly on e-mail or social media.
In this lecture, you'll be introduced to Vue.js as we take a ten thousand feet overview of its origins, purpose and popularity in the industry. Before you learn more about Vue.js, it is important to know why it's so amazing and gaining so much popularity.
What is a Vue.js app? And what is it made up of? Let's try to find out.
Before we get our hands dirty, let's try to setup our development environment. Let me walk you through everything from using the right code editor and extensions, to downloading and setting up our very own VueBox Git repo which contains start and end code files for the next few sections. This is a lecture that you don't wanna miss.
Let's get our hands dirty with Vue.js. We'll build a super simple Hello World app but in doing so, we'll discover and learn essential concepts that make up a Vue.js app.
We're continuing our hands-on learning exercise with a simple Hello World app. In this lecture, we'll play with form fields and the Vue way of handling them.
And finally, let's output our text in reverse. This is fun!
At the heart of a Vue.js app, sits the Virtual DOM. But do you know what a DOM is in the first place? Let's learn about the Document Object Model (DOM), before bringing Virtual DOM and its benefits into the picture. This lecture is essential for you to master Vue's core values.
The Virtual DOM, by itself cannot do anything unless you bring in Reactive Data. Let's try to unravel what it is?
Once upon a time, JavaScript could only be used for simple form validators. Well, time has changed and if you’re a web designer or developer, chances are that your next big project requires a cutting edge web application framework that offers state of the art features such as a Virtual DOM, Reactivity, Superhero performance, all with a feather light footprint.
That is where Vue JS comes in. Vue JS is an amazing JavaScript framework for building high performance user interfaces but has enough ammo to power your next killer web application.
In this beginner’s course on Vue JS, we will go from the absolute basics of a framework, including concepts such as DOM and setting up a development environment, to understanding core Vue features, essential workflows and best practices.
You will work through 20+ hands-on exercises to solidify your command on essential Vue concepts.
Vue offers the best of Angular and React and features a component based architecture that let’s you break down your app or even an interface into manageable and scalable functional units.
Vue apps offer incredible performance that is neck to neck and even better than some of the leading web app frameworks in use today. Vue features a Virtual DOM that is lighter than the rest and delivers impeccable performance.
By the end of the course, you would’ve mastered essential fundamentals that will enable you to:
If you’re a web designer, developer or even a project manager with a goal to master or pick a web application framework for your project, but are too afraid to begin, then this is your chance to finally realise your dream. Vue is surprisingly simple to learn, which makes it a winner and enables existing production grade projects and teams to incrementally bring it into their ecosystem.
One of the best things about this course is the personalised hand-holding that I offer to all my learners. As a student of this course, you are invited to interact with me and seek help. It is my endeavour to ensure your success.
All lessons come with start and end files and I’m committed to updating this course in line with Vue’s evolution and future.
Vue has gained tremendous ground and its community is growing exponentially. So, hop on in and together, learn Vue JS.
