Ten Years of Vue (with Evan You)


Listen Later

This DejaVue episode is special - Alex and Michael meet up with the creator of Vue, Vite and Rolldown, Evan You himself and talk about the last ten years of Vue!

Starting with how Vue.js started as a side project while Evan still worked at Google, Evan shares the story of how Vue.js came to be and how it evolved over the years. Interesting insights, such as why the Composition API was created and which initial problems should be solved with it, are shared in this episode. And to all that, questions from the Q&A were answered as well, touching topics like petite-vue, if and how the Options API will persist and how opinionated Vue.js is.

After an hour of content and insights, the episode ends with a tiny cliffhanger, as Part Two of the conversation covering the future of Vue, possible Vue 4 features, Vapor mode, Vue 3.5 and more, will be released next week!

Enjoy the episode!
