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 6. Plugins – Building Your House with Your Own Bricks

In the previous chapter, you learned how to manage the global application store using the Vuex architecture. You learned a lot of new concepts and applied them. You also learned how to create a store, how to define its state and mutations, and how to use actions and getters. We brought our shopping list and Pomodoro applications to life using the knowledge acquired during the chapter.

In this chapter, we will revisit Vue plugins, see how they work, and how they must be created. We will use some existing plugins and create our own.

Summing it up, in this chapter, we are going to do the following:

  • Understand the nature of Vue plugins
  • Use the resource plugin in the shopping lists application
  • Create a plugin that produces white, pink, and brown noises and apply it to our Pomodoro application
