Tic-Tac-Vue

Tic-Tac-Vue is a simple JavaScript Single Page Application (SPA) written with Vue, Vuex and Vue Router. Its goal is to be a "case study" for beginners who want to learn Vue and its powerful ecosystem.

Methodologies

In this project I adopted two methodologies I currently use in MotorK (the company I've been working with) to have a better factored code and organized source files: BEM and Atomic Design.

BEM

BEM (which means Block Element Modifier) is a methodology that helps you to create reusable components in front-end development. It's all about splitting your CSS classes using Blocks, Elements and Modifiers. The final DOM could be verbose, but you will have a better factored source code and, because of you don't have to nest CSS classes, your CSS bundle will result less heavy.

Atomic Design

Atomic Design is a methodology for creating design systems. Similarly to chemistry, you can organize your components file (in this scenario Vue Single File Components) using atoms, molecules and organisms.

Atoms

Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter. Applied to web interfaces, atoms are our HTML tags, such as a form label, an input or a button.

Molecules

Molecules are groups of atoms bonded together and are the smallest fundamental units of a compound.

Organisms

Organisms are groups of molecules joined together to form a relatively complex, distinct section of an interface.

(This project doesn't have organisms: it only has atoms, molecules and pages.)

Technical skills

First of all, I strongly suggest you to have a look at Vue documentation, especially to:

• Vue instance
• Vue lifecycle
• Vue data
• Vue methods
• Vue props
• Vue computed properties
• Vue Single File Components
• Vuex state
• Vuex getters
• Vuex mutations
• Vue Router

These are the minimum requirements to have a better approach with Tic-Tac-Vue.

Install

You can install Tic-Tac-Vue cloning the project:

git clone https://github.com/Sanfra1407/tic-tac-vue.git

then install npm dependencies:

npm install

Usage

Since this project has been developed with the amazing Vue-CLI, you can use its own integrated CLI commands to serve or build the application.

Start dev server

npm run serve

Compiles and minifies for production

npm run build

Lints and fixes files

npm run lint
