Overview of this book

Vue.js is a progressive web framework for building professional user interfaces for your web applications. With Vue.js 3, the frontend framework is reinforced with architectural enhancements, new base languages, new render processes, and separated core components. The book starts with recipes for implementing Vue.js 3’s new features in your web development projects and migrating your existing Vue.js apps to the latest version. You will get up and running with TypeScript with Vue.js and find succinct solutions to common challenges and pitfalls faced in implementing components, derivatives, and animation, through to building plugins, adding state management, routing, and developing complete single-page applications (SPAs). As you advance, you'll discover recipes to help you integrate Vue.js apps with Nuxt.js in order to add server-side rendering capabilities to your SPAs. You'll then learn about the Vue.js ecosystem by exploring modern frameworks such as Quasar, Nuxt.js, Vuex, and Vuetify in your web projects. Finally, the book provides you with solutions for packaging and deploying your Vue.js apps. By the end of this Vue.js book, you'll be able to identify and solve challenges faced in building Vue.js applications and be able to adopt the Vue.js framework for frontend web projects of any scale.

> quasar mode add pwa

Quasar-CLI will create a folder called src-pwa that will have our service-workers files, separated from our main code.

To clean the newly added files, and to lint it into the Airbnb format, we need to open Terminal (macOS or Linux) or the Command Prompt/PowerShell (Windows) and execute the following command:

> eslint --fix --ext .js ./src-pwa

The code that we added to the SPA will still be used as our base so that we can add new pages, components, and other functions to it as well, which will be used on the PWA.

So, are you wondering why service-worker is not in the main src folder? This is because those files are exclusively for PWAs, and are not needed in any other case than this one. The same will happen in...
