Vue JS 3: Composition API (with Pinia, Firebase 9 & Vite)

Already know the Options API? Switch over to the Composition API as quickly as possible! (Oh, and Pinia & Firebase 9!)

If you’re already familiar with Vue 2 & The Options API, then this course will teach you everything you need to know to switch over to (and get started with) Vue 3 & the amazing new Composition API.

My name’s Danny, I’m an Indie App Developer & Creator of Fudget, the highest rated personal finance app for iOS, Android, Mac & Windows.

And I’ve spent the last 12 months creating Fudget 2 - which is built on Vue 3 & The Composition API.

In this course you’ll start by learning the key differences between the Options API & Composition API by creating a simple Options API app & converting it to the Composition API.

You’ll then master all of the basics including:

• Reactive data with Refs & Reactive Objects

• Methods, Computed Properties & Watchers

• Lifecycle Hooks

• Directives

• Vue Router

• Child Components - including the new ways of handling props, emits & modelValue

• Dynamic Components

• Composables - how to create them from scratch & how to import them from the VueUse library

• And you’ll learn State Management using Pinia, the incredible successor to Vuex

After learning the basics, you’re gonna create a real world app called Noteballs from scratch - which has full CRUD capabilities, uses Pinia for State Management and demonstrates real-world use of all the basics you learned earlier.

FIREBASE 9 UPDATE (JUN 2022):

The course has been updated with 3 hours of new content on Firebase 9, where we will:

• Hook Noteballs up to a Firebase Cloud Firestore database

• Add Authentication, so that multiple users can register, login and log out of our app

• Add Realtime Data Sync, so that if a user adds a note on one device, they'll see the note instantly appear on another device

• Add Firebase Security Rules to protect our users' data

• Host our finished app on Firebase Hosting so that we can share it with anyone

After this course, you’ll be able to create your own Vue 3 apps based entirely on the Composition API - from scratch.

This course requires a basic understanding of Vue 2 & The Options API, HTML, CSS & JavaScript.

Please check out the preview videos & I look forward to seeing you in the course.
