Vue.js 2 and Bootstrap 4 Web Development

Overview of this book

In this book, we will build a full stack web application right from scratch up to its deployment. We will start by building a small introduction application and then proceed to the creation of a fully functional, dynamic responsive web application called ProFitOro. In this application, we will build a Pomodoro timer combined with office workouts. Besides the Pomodoro timer and ProFitOro workouts will enable authentication and collaborative content management. We will explore topics such as Vue reactive data binding, reusable components, routing, and Vuex store along with its state, actions, mutations, and getters. We will create Vue applications using both webpack and Nuxt.js templates while exploring cool hot Nuxt.js features such as code splitting and server-side rendering. We will use Jest to test this application, and we will even revive some trigonometry from our secondary school! While developing the app, you will go through the new grid system of Bootstrap 4 along with Vue.js’ directives. We will connect Vuex store to the Firebase real-time database, data storage, and authentication APIs and use this data later inside the application’s reactive components. Finally, we will quickly deploy our application using the Firebase hosting mechanism.

Authenticating to the ProFitOro application


Let us now make signing in and logging in to our ProFitOro application possible! First, we have to set up the Firebase instance and figure out where we should put all the methods related to authentication. The Firebase application initialization has already been done inside the store/index.js file. Just add the apiKey and authDomain configuration entries if you still do not have them included in the config:

// store/index.js
let config = {
  apiKey: 'YourAPIKey',
  databaseURL: 'https://profitoro-ad0f0.firebaseio.com',
  authDomain: 'profitoro-ad0f0.firebaseapp.com'
}
let firebaseApp = firebase.initializeApp(config)

I will also export firebaseApp within the store's state property using the spread operator:

//store/index.js
export default new Vuex.Store({
  state: {
    ...state,
    firebaseApp
  },
  <...>
})

I will also add a user property to our state so we can reset it on the onAuthStateChanged listener's handler:

// store/state.js
export...
