Vue.js 2 Academy: Learn Vue Step by Step [Video]

Overview of this book

Vue.js is a fun and easy-to-use JavaScript framework for building user interfaces. From easily adding it to an existing website or application to just control a part of it, such as adding new components, through to using it for medium or large single-page applications, you can improve productivity in several ways. The course will guide you through building two challenging yet exciting projects, which will help you apply everything you learn. You’ll begin with a guest list app where users can add their name to an event guest list. Although this is a simple app, you’ll learn several Vue.js essentials while building it such as two-way data binding, event handling, templates and the Virtual DOM, and instance properties - data, computed, watchers, methods, and filters. You will then build on your knowledge by creating a greeting card application where users can create and edit their custom greeting card. They will be able to add their text and images to create a personalised card. This project will get you up to speed with components (local, global, and single file), installing Node and NPM, passing data with $emit, and storing and retrieving images from Firebase. In addition to this, you’ll make use of Vue CLI to scaffold your projects with build tools such as Webpack and Babel. By the end of this course, you will be well-versed with Vue.js and have gained hands-on experience in applying it effectively in your projects.

Adding CSS animations
Along with transitions we also have the option to add animations too. Animations allow us to gradually change from one style to another. We could gradually change an element from one color to another. Or for this example, I am going to add a scale effect to the "remove image" button. This means the button will begin small and grow to be full size when the mouse hovers. Then when the mouse leaves the button will shrink out of view. For the animation, we need to setup the @keyframes rule. We need to set up keyframes to control the steps of the CSS animation.
