Bonus – creating a new project using the Vue CLI

We've used the Vue CLI to create an example application with TypeScript support enabled. You can find it in the code samples for this book, under Chapter09/04-vue-cli/01-empty.

When you use the Vue CLI to create an application, it asks a series of questions that let you customize the project creation process.

Here's how we created our example application and the options that we used:

• Command: vue create 01-empty
• Manually select features
• Package manager? Yarn
• Features:
• TypeScript
• Linter/Format
• Unit testing
• E2E testing

At the second stage, the CLI has asked us the following questions:

• Use class-style component syntax? Yes
• Which linter to use? TSLint
• When to lint? Lint on save
• Which library for unit tests? Jest
• Which library to use for E2E tests? Cypress
• Where to store configurations? In dedicated config files
