Writing on testing, AI, Playwright, and the web.
With Nuxt components you can auto import your components really easily and even comes with support for dynamic imports otherwise known as lazy loading. That means you can just add your component in the template without having to add it to the script tag. This makes development much faster.
In our frontend applications, we often use APIs and third-party integrations which require us to use configuration data which is usually provided by environment variables. These variables should not be exposed to the frontend as the browser environment is accessible by all visitors.
The @nuxtjs/color-mode module is a cool way of adding dark mode to your site. But not only does it switch from dark to light but also any color theme (eg sepia mode). It even has auto detection so that it will choose the right mode depending on your system appearance.
In Nuxt.js there are 3 different ways to ignore files during the build phase. This is great for static site generation which means you can still generate your site with a broken page as it will be ignored.
An error page is the page you see when you arrive at a page that can't be found. These are typically called 404 pages. To create an error page all you need to do is create an `error.vue` file in your layouts folder. Layouts?
Sometimes you want to test out your site on your actual mobile device or tablet and not just in the dev tools. This is great when bug fixing or just to see how it looks in a real environment.
Did you know that `$nuxt.isOffline` can be used to show your users content based on if they are online or not.
Nuxt.js automatically gives you a loading progress bar component which is shown between routes. Did you know you can customise it, disable it or create your own component?
As we add so many third party libraries to our site sometimes we forget that perhaps they are going to have an impact on our performance or sometimes we just don't read the install instructions and install the whole library instead of only what we need.
With Nuxt.js it is really easy to add transitions between your pages. You can create transitions for all your pages or layouts and you can even have different transitions for specific pages.
Let’s dive into building some core main components that you might be tasked with when writing applications in Vue. Or, if you’re new to Vue, then these are definitely some great ways to get started understanding the more ‘common’ components that we might work with on a day-to-day basis. With that in mind, let’s get started right away with building a Counter, Dropdown and finally an Accordion with Vue!
Vue CLI is the fastest way to get your Vue project off the ground and it also comes with a really cool graphical user interface that allows you to easily modify your project’s configuration, run linters, search for and install plugins, analyse your bundle with webpack and more.
