Overview/Description

Vue.js, a Javascript front-end framework that is lightweight, flexible, progressive, is easy to set up to quickly start creating apps. In this 15-video course on important aspects of Vue.js, learners see how to use the V-Model directive to set up two-way data binding between Form Inputs and locally managed data. Then you will learn to work with FormData in Vue to construct a set of key/value pairs. Next, the course demonstrates how to install the necessary tools for unit testing, and how to create and run teAPI. You will learn to use Jest, a JavaScript unit testing tool; how to stub certain Vue containers as part of setting up unit tests; and examine mixins (Cascading Style Sheet properties similar to functions) and global mixins to define and distribute reusable bits of logic among the app's components. You will learn to use built-in and custom directives in Vue to add to templates. Finally, learners will see that custom filters are a way to apply common formatting to text and return an output.
