Vue
The Road To Enterprise
Learn how to create Enterprise-Ready applications with Vue 2 and 3.
Best practices, advanced patterns, guides, tricks, and more...
Vue is awesome and it's so easy to learn! But what next?
Hi, I’m Thomas Findlay, 5-star rated JavaScript consultant, technical writer, and mentor.
For the past few years, I have extensively worked with hundreds of new and seasoned developers, helping them learn Vue, build complex features, and make their applications maintainable and scalable.
On multiple occasions, I heard there are a lot of resources for beginners, but not for more advanced developers, and thus a lot of developers wonder, what next?
This book should be the answer to that question.
The Road To Enterprise
Ever thought about how to take your Vue skills and knowledge to the next level? This book provides all the material you need to make you more proficient in no time.
What's in the book?
"Vue - The Road To Enteprise" is a book with more than 300 pages. It comprises 14 chapters that cover wide variety of guides, advanced patterns, tips, and best practices, related to development of large-scale Vue applications. This book incorporates concepts and code examples for both Vue 2 and Vue 3, so no matter which one you use, you can find something that works for you.
Migration guide and differences between Vue 2 and 3
Start The Road To Enterprise by exploring major differences between Vue 2 and 3, and migration tips, so you are prepared to convert your old projects and kick-start new ones with the latest version.
Project setup, architecture, and documentation
Setup and configure a Vue project with scalable and maintainable architecture, and explore different tools for documenting your project and components.
API layer and async operations
Make handling API requests and loading states a breeze by utilising an API layer. Explore examples showcasing how to perform and cancel API requests, and handle multiple API states, whilst keeping your code clean and easy to follow.
State management and vuex
Dive into different state managements techniques and master advanced patterns for managing, reusing, and sharing state in your application. Get to know when and how to use Vuex for handling your global state.
Advanced component and layout patterns
Change the way you write and use components by learning advanced patterns and how to handle dynamic layouts. Setup automatic registration of your most commonly used components. Discover how to use Renderless Components to provide stateful and reusable logic. In addition, learn how to handle third-party libraries by introducing wrapper components.
Performance Optimisation
Is your application slow? Are users leaving your site? No one likes to wait, especially for sluggish apps, so make sure, that yours is blazing fast. Explore multiple ways and patterns on improving and optimising performance, and decreasing the final bundle size. The less code the better!
Testing & Security
Don't like to write tests, or are you not sure how to do it? "The Road To Enterprise" has you covered, so you can write reliable unit and e2e tests. It also covers different security aspects and how to manage access permission to pages and content.
Who is this book for?
"Vue - The Road To Enterprise" is not a beginners guide to Vue.js. It will not teach you how to get started with it. To make the most out of this book, you should have at least an intermediate knowledge of JavaScript, Vue.js, and the ecosystem around it such as Vue CLI, Vue Router and Vuex. You should also be comfortable with using a command line interface.
The book is written with a very hands-on approach. I strongly believe that the best way to learn to code is by practice. There are a lot of code examples, that you should follow along, and play with yourself to gain a deeper understanding of the concept behind. You can do it either from scratch, or by using the Companion App. If you are looking for a book to read on the go, or simply away from your PC, then it might not be the best book for you.
This book is a great resource for:
Developers with prior Vue knowledge who want to upscale their Vue proficiency and learn how to create enterprise-ready applications.
- Developers and teams who want to quickly get on board with best practices, patterns, and tips to incorporate in their new or existing Vue projects.
- Developers who are looking for career progression as a Vue.js developer.
The only advanced Vue book you need, to start building
large-scale and performant applications
Companion App
Together with this book, you can get the Companion App that showcases more detailed working code examples, so you don’t have to write the code yourself. It has enhanced code samples available for various chapters and sections, so if you want to incorporate it in your application you can just open the Companion App and copy the code. The Complete package also includes a Vue 3 enterprise boilerplate setup, so you can get started working on your projects immediately.
