vue-class-component VS vite

This was a good change. Evan has always been extremely good at putting his finger on the pulse of the frontend community. If there's a feature or paradigm that people love that would fit in Vue, Evan will incorporate it. Over the years, Vue has implemented (and sometimes later deprecated) dependency injection, JSX support, custom elements, Angular-style class components, Svelte-style ref sugar, and now Solid-inspired compiler optimizations. They even changed the order of a Vue file to match that of Svelte: first the script, then the template.

That is the whole point. Just check this code. If it was written in a basic vue 2 syntax style it wouldn't be a probrem at all :D So I am looking for a workoround to reuse either a component, or the whole module(page). Some trick which won't require a refactoring of a large app.

The docs are not wrong perse because they distance themself from this package: https://github.com/vuejs/vue-class-component But at the time they recommended this package for best ts experience in vue 2. YOu can see that Evan's account is the second biggest contributor.

Vue(TS) is abandoning vue-class-component, preferring to ask developers to use the Composition API. See https://github.com/vuejs/vue-class-component/issues/569

Due to `vue-class-component` is [deprecated in vue3](https://github.com/vuejs/vue-class-component/issues/569). I built a alternative package to do that with many features.

This topic has come up a few times, but I'm hoping that at some point there can be some official guidance from the Vue team on vue-class-components.

According to the Github commit history, the last commit was on 15 Dec 2020. Also, in this conversation, it's saying this library is not maintained anymore, that's why it doesn't work with Vue 3 at all. I did switch from Vue 2 with class style component to Vue 3 since last May. I also switch from Vuex4 to Pinia since last December. I don't have any big issue regarding pass props through different components or using Pinia. The best way to understand how it works is checking Vue 3 and Pinia official document.

I'm particularly a little salty about the situation of vue-class-component. This is an officially supported vue library that thousands of people use (including myself), and it has been left to die on the vine with regard to Vue3. It has been in the same RC state for over a year, with no communication or support as to what is happening.

3) Previously officially supported projects are being essentially abandoned. Vue Cli has been waiting for V5 for the past year, with no indication of release date, and now is in "maintenance mode". Vue Class Component has similarly been waiting for an update for over a year, and still does not have an official release that supports Vue3.

When I was using Vue2 along with vue-class-component and vue-property-decorator it was easy to synchronize v-models between components simply using @ModelSync(). When Vue 3 came out with its Composition API another way was needed to achieve the same result as if Class Component was used.

import { defineConfig } from 'vite' import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react-swc' import path from 'path' // https://vitejs.dev/config/ export default defineConfig({ plugins: [react()], server: { port: 3000 }, css: { devSourcemap: true }, resolve: { alias: { '~': path.resolve(__dirname, './src') } } })

I am currently utilizing Vite:

Homepage: https://vitejs.dev/

Without any adding any dependencies you can connect react props to raw css at runtime with nothing but css variables (aka "custom properties"). If you add CSS modules on top you don't have to worry about affecting the global scope so components created in this way can be truly modular and transferrable. I use this with vite.

Little confused as to why it has vite in it‘s name, it seems unrelated to https://vitejs.dev/

it says in their docs that they recommend Vite https://vitejs.dev/

it goes like this.

1. you create a repo folder, you cd into it.

2. you create a client template using vite which can be plain typescript, or uses frameworks such as react or vue, at https://vitejs.dev/guide/

3. you cd in that client directory, you npm install, then you npm run dev, it should show you that it works at localhost:5173

4. you follow the instructions on your url, you do npm install @web3modal/wagmi @wagmi/core @wagmi/connectors viem

5. you follow the further instructions.

> It seems like this is for npm or yarn to pull from a remote repository maintained by @wagmi for instance. But then what?

you install the wagmi modules, then you import them in your js code, those code can run upon being loaded or upon user actions such as button clicks

> Do I just symlink to the node_modules directory somehow? Use browserify? Or these days I'd use webpack or whatever the cool kids are using these days?

no need for those. browserify is old school way of transpiling commonjs modules into browser-compatible modules. webpack is similar. vite replaces both webpack and browserify. vite also uses esbuild and swc under the hood which replaces babel.

> I totally get how node package management works ... for NODE. But all these client-side JS projects these days have docs that are clearly for the client-side but the ES2015 module examples they show seem to leave out all instructions for how to actually get the files there, as if it's obvious.

pretty much similar actually. except on client-side, you have src and dist folders. when you run "npm run build" vite will compile the src dir into dist dir. the outputs are the static files that you can serve with any http server such as npx serve, or caddy, or anything really.

> What gives? And finally, what exactly does "browserify" do these days, since I think Node supports both ES modules and and CJS modules? I also see sometimes UMD universal modules

vite supports both ecmascript modules and commonjs modules. but these days you'll just want to stick with ecmascript which makes your code consistently use import and export syntax, and you get the extra benefit of it working well with your vscode intellisense.

> In short, I'm a bit confused how to use package management properly with browsers in 2024: https://modern-web.dev/guides/going-buildless/es-modules/

if people want plain js there is unpkg.com and esm.sh way, but the vite route is the best for you as it's recommended and tested by the providers of your modules.

> And finally, if you answer this, can you spare a word about typescript? Do we still need to use Babel and Webpack together to transpile it to JS, and minify and tree-shake, or what?

I recommend typescript, as it gives you better type-safety and better intellisense, but it really depends. If you're new to it, it can slow you down at first. But as your project grows you'll eventually see the value of it. In vite there are options to scaffold your project in pure js or ts.

First you have to know that all those react projects are created using Vite, and for each of them, you need change the vite.config.ts file by adding the following configuration:

CSSHooks works with React, Prereact, Solid.js, and Qwik, and we’re going to use Vite with the React configuration. First, let's create a project called css-hooks and install Vite:

JavaScript React Flowbite Tailwind Firebase - Auth, Database, and Hosting Vite

For this full-stack single-page app, you'll use Vite.js as your frontend build tool and the react-beautiful-dnd package for draggable items.
