Hello everyone! I’m a day behind this week, as Monday was a day off here for the kiddos to celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day here in Seattle. But that also means I’ve been able to collect an extra days worth of goodies for y'all. Now that I’ve made it through last week’s heap of work, I’ll get back to posting on the blog. The next couple of posts look at some topics a couple folks emailed me about, and that I see a lot online: “How do I integrate library XYZ with Vue.js?” and “How can I extend a Vue component to do XYZ?” Keep an eye open for them, or just chill until next week’s email drop. Cheers, –Benjamin

I stumbled upon so much goodness over on GitHub this past week. Here’s the repos I got some great mileage out of already.
|
vue-awesome: Font Awesome component for Vue.js, using inline SVG.
vue-awesome, not to be confused with awesome-vue, is a Vue.js component that lets you add icons to your components in a snap. Plus you get things like scaling, spinning and more. Just peep the demo! |
Pointer: Provide point events for DOM elements
This magical bit of awesome gives your app W3C Pointer Events so you can handle input from any device with a single binding. No more spaghetti code for tap vs click vs whatever. And yes, because it leverages the browser’s event system, you can bind just like @click in your Vue components.
|
Gesture: Provide tap-events for DOM elements: tap, longtap, doubletap, hold, fling
From the same folks, a library of events for gestures that builds on what Pointer does. Just like Hammer.js in many respects, but I’ve found the integration to be easier. |
vue-rx: Simple RxJS binding for Vue.js.
If you use RxJS Observables, you may find this binding from Evan himself to be quite handy. |

I hope you find some of the above useful. Stay tuned for updates to the blog, and I’ll see you next week.
