Vue.js: The JavaScript Framework for Designers Who Know Just Enough JavaScript and jQuery To Get By

Vue is a JavaScript framework for building user interfaces that is becoming increasingly popular in the framework world.

One of the Vue’s biggest win is how approachable it is due its simplicity while also being capable of powering sophisticated Single-Page Applications.

Prepare to get super hands-on! I will be live-coding and walking through some of the fundamentals of Vue. At the end, we will be building a feature for an a existing WordPress site using Vue.

In this workshop, we will cover:

  • What is Vue and why you should consider it
  • How to get started with Vue
  • Integrating Vue with WordPress

Prerequisites/Assumptions:

  • Some fundamental JavaScript knowledge will help you follow along easier. Feeling a little light with your JavaScript chops? Go to Zac’s JavaScript workshop, which is right before mine!

******If you’re going to be coding alongside me during the workshop, you’ll have two options:

1. Run a local WordPress site, with a theme I uploaded on GitHub. I’ll need you to do a few things before you come to the workshop.

— OR —

2. Use CodePen. I have a starter pen ready with a basic Vue instance.
