Overview of this book

Vue.js is one of the latest new frameworks to have piqued the interest of web developers due to its reactivity, reusable components, and ease of use. This book shows developers how to leverage its features to build high-performing, reactive web interfaces with Vue.js. From the initial structuring to full deployment, this book provides step-by-step guidance to developing an interactive web interface from scratch with Vue.js. You will start by building a simple application in Vue.js which will let you observe its features in action. Delving into more complex concepts, you will learn about reactive data binding, reusable components, plugins, filters, and state management with Vuex. This book will also teach you how to bring reactivity to an existing static application using Vue.js. By the time you finish this book you will have built, tested, and deployed a complete reactive application in Vue.js from scratch.

Chapter 3. Components – Understanding and Using

In the previous chapter, you learned how Vue.js works. You saw behind the scenes and even made a slight debug of the core Vue.js code. You learned some of Vue's key concepts. You also learned and tried different ways of installing Vue.js. We have bootstrapped the applications; we will develop and enhance from this chapter on. We have also seen how to debug and to test our applications.

In the first chapter, we talked about components and even created some. In this chapter, we will use components in our applications and see some interesting directives in action. That being said, in this chapter, we are going to do the following:

  • Revisit the components topic and review what components are
  • Create components for our applications
  • Learn what single-file components are
  • Learn how to achieve reactive CSS transitions with special attributes
