Introduction to VUE JS
What is VueJS?
Vue also pronounced as “view”.Vue is a modern front-end framework that can help anybody build a website or web app. It’s lightweight, flexible, and easy to get started with. But it’s also a full, rich framework that can grow to meet the needs of the most advanced web app builder.Vue is the most versatile framework currently available for JavaScript. It’s also the easiest to understand for programmers and non-programmers alike.
You can use Vue to manage an image slideshow, or you can build a full single-page app. That includes testing, routing, state management, security, and much more.
Let’s look at what you need to know to start using VueJS.
Let’s look at what you need to know to start using VueJS.
Flexibility:
Vue.js is flexible and scalable. In practice, this means that it can be used for a huge, modular SPA (Single Page Apps) as well as to construct small, interactive parts to be integrated using a different technology.
Handy Conventions:
Writing boilerplate code is a time and resource sink. Vue.js helps you avoid this kind of busy work by providing a lot of built-in solutions and enforcing effort-saving conventions.
Future-proof:
After you’ve built and deployed your app, you also have to keep up to date with bug fixes, new features, and other improvements. Vue.js makes updating easy. New releases including large updates are made in such a way as to maintain as much backwards compatibility as possible
Developer-friendly:
Developers love Vue.js not just because it’s a great technology, but also because it’s made with them in mind.
Theirs is a graphical interface (Vue GUI) available, which can help you get started on your project without typing cryptic commands into the terminal.
Progressive:
If you have a project that is in need of a boost in performance, rewriting it in Vue may be the silver bullet.
Thanks to its progressive nature, the framework can be introduced into your codebase gradually – there’s no need to rework the whole thing in one fell swoop.
Why VueJS is Popular?
Put simply, it’s a view-oriented product. The view is the most essential part of everything that occurs inside the system, and all information is only validated if it interacts with views correctly. Creating just a single view is pretty basic, and here lies the main advantage and desire to use VueJS.
Lightweight:
The VueJS framework is tiny, almost comically so. It’s just 18 kilobytes – blinking takes longer than the download.
No brainer:
VueJS is really easy to pick up, and it’s been this characteristic that has been the main driver behind it’s widespread and increasing adoption
DOM-inant:
As we touched on, a DOM is a representation of HTML pages with styles, elements, and page content shown as linked objects. This generates something that looks like an upside-down family tree, with the document branching off into its various parts, linked by lines that demonstrate the relations.
Be A Tool:
VueJS has accumulated a powerful set of tools for unit and end to end testing, as well as a plugin installation system. Factor in the VueJS has its own browser
debugging tools, server renderer and a state manager and you’re well equipped and on your way to building a frontend.
Sense of Community:
The online VueJS community is nothing short of fantastically helpful. The crowdfunded nature of the platform, and the fact that it’s not backed by a company like Facebook or Google, has gained Vue a cult following
Benefits of using VueJS
VueJS should be considered as the first choice if you want to construct a single-page application. Because there are so many challenges in the development area that cannot be handled by utilizing a single library, VueJS is interoperable with different libraries, so you may easily use it. VueJS is supported by all major browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, and others. This library may easily be compared to your favorite libraries.
Vue can replace both of those tools and solve their problems. And it does so without completely taking over your website. It introduces modern JavaScript practices without the modern JavaScript headaches.
Vue is subjectively the easiest framework to learn and implement. And it stays as easy as it is without sacrificing a rich and powerful feature set.
Simplicity:
You can write your Vue app within 5-6 code lines. Vue streamlines the web app development cycle by doing automation tasks under the hood such as-
– It links the data to DOM automatically
– Takes care of configurations
– Create watchers for each component
Reusability:
The component-based approach of Vue enables the formation of reusable single file components. Inside a component, template, logic, and styles are inherently coupled.Instead of separating the code into arbitrary layers, Vue collates components that can be reused and into a function.
Reusing the components imply-
- less repetitive coding
- increases code readability
- simplifies testing and maintenance
High Performance:
Vue js framework is extremely lightweight, bundling around 20KB. But it doesn’t compromise on performance or productivity. It is one of the fastest frameworks available for building web interfaces.
With such minimal characteristics, Vue js is lightning-fast to install and you can start working in a matter of minutes. Plus, the high page loading time also positively affects your web pages’ SEO ranking.
Documentation:
Documentation is a very essential part of any framework or library, especially if you are a beginner and new to the technology. Compared to other JS frameworks, Vue js possesses extremely detailed documentation.
Along with an introductory guide, the Vue documentation gives a good overview of the working of the framework. It provides information for the simple installation process.
Cross-Platform:
Vue developers are able to use the cross-platform UI framework Weexfor native app development.
The same component syntax that you use for websites, can be applied for native mobile apps for iOS and Android. This greatly reduces the work of your development team and ensures a faster time-to-market.
