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.

It's time to apply some style


Our application is fully functional now; it can be used right away. Of course, it is still not perfect. It lacks validations and some functionality, several requirements have not been implemented yet, and the most important thing…it lacks beauty! It's all gray, it doesn't have style…we are humans, we love beautiful things, don't we? Everyone implements styles in their own way. I strongly recommend that if you want to use this application, please find your own style and theme for it, and please implement it and share with me. I would love to see it.

As for me, since I am not a designer, I asked my good friend Vanessa (https://www.behance.net/MeegsyWeegsy) to create a nice design for the ProFitOro application. She did a great job! Since I was busy writing this book, I had no time to implement Vanessa's design, therefore I asked my good friend, Filipe (https://github.com/fil090302), to help me with it. Filipe did a great job as well! Everything looks exactly how...
