Overview of this book

<p>Vue.js is a library to build interactive web interfaces. The aim is to provide the benefits of reactive data binding and composable view components with an API that is as simple as possible.</p> <p>This book will teach you how to efficiently implement Vue.js in your projects. It starts with the fundamentals of Vue.js to building large-scale applications. You will find out what components, filters, methods, and computed properties are and how to use them to build robust applications.</p> <p>Further on, you will become familiar with ES6, single file components, module bundlers, and workflow automation. The best way to learn to code is to write it, so there’s an exercise at the end of most of the chapters for you to solve and actually test yourself on what you have learned. You can solve these in order to gain a better understanding of Vue.js.</p> <p>By the end of this book, you will be able to create fast front-end applications and increase the performance of your existing projects with Vue.js integration.</p>

Chapter 12. ECMAScript 6

Before we take things a step further and see how we can build large-scale applications, I would like to familiarize you with ECMAScript 6 (ES6).

Note

ECMAScript is a client-side scripting language's specification, that is the basis of several programming languages including JavaScript, ActionScript, and JScript.

ES6, also known as ES2015, is the latest version of the ECMAScript standard. The ES6 specification was finalized in June 2015. It is a significant update to the language, and the first major update since ES5 was standardized in 2009. Implementation of ES6 features in major JavaScript engines is underway now (http://kangax.github.io/compat-table/es6/).
