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.

Introducing workouts


I have been so enthusiastic writing this chapter, calculating sine, cosine, drawing SVG, implementing a timer, and taking care of the inactive tabs and stuff that I almost forgot to do my workout! I like planks and pushups, what about you? By the way, haven't you also forgotten that workouts are a part of our application? During the breaks, we are supposed to do simple exercises and not just check our social networks!

We will implement full-fledged workouts and their management in the next chapters; for now, let's just leave a nice placeholder for the workout and hard code one exercise in this placeholder (I vote for pushups since the book is mine, but you can add the workout or exercise of your own preference). Open the PomodoroTimer.vue component and wrap up a countdown component into a div with a class row. We will make this row contain two columns, one of which will be the countdown timer, and the other is a conditionally rendered element containing a workout. Why...
