Overview of this book

Building enterprise-ready Vue.js apps entails following best practices for creating high-performance and scalable applications. Complete with step-by-step explanations and best practices outlined, this Vue.js book is a must-read for any developer who works with a large Vue.js codebase where performance and scalability are indispensable. Throughout this book, you’ll learn how to configure and set up Vue.js 3 and the composition API and use it to build real-world applications. You’ll develop the skills to create reusable components and scale performance in Vue.js 3 applications. As you progress, the book guides you in scaling performance with asynchronous lazy loading, image compression, code splitting, and tree shaking. Furthermore, you’ll see how to use the Restful API, Docker, GraphQL, and different types of testing to ensure that your Vue.js 3 application is scalable and maintainable. By the end of this book, you’ll be well-versed in best practices for implementing Restful API, Docker, GraphQL, and testing methods to build and deploy an enterprise-ready Vue.js 3 application of any scale.

An introduction to Strapi

Strapi is an open-source headless CMS based on Node.js that is used to create and manage different forms of content using a RESTful API and GraphQL.

Additionally, Strapi makes developing, deploying, and maintaining APIs faster and can be configured to consume content via APIs using any HTTP client or GraphQL-enabled frontend.

These benefits are the reason we will use Strapi to create the backend of our Pinterest clone application, so we can focus more on the frontend without having to pay much attention to scaling the backend.

In the next section, we will work through scaffolding a Strapi project, building out all the collections we need in our project, and seeding out the Strapi account with dummy data.
