FormKit and Hot Takes (with Justin Schroeder)30 Jan 202501:25:48

Together with the FormKit author Justin Schroeder, Michael and Alex discuss the challenges of building forms on the internet.

While it seems like a simple task, forms can be complex and pretty time-consuming. Especially when it is more than a Newsletter or Contact Form.

Justin shares his experience building FormKit (multiple times), a form library for Vue.js, and how it can help developers build forms faster and more efficiently. From Accessibility to actually covering edge cases such as form hydration and repopulation!


Of course, we couldn't let Justin go without talking about some of his hot takes from Vue in 2024, over to Vapor Mode, and Tailwind.

Of course we talk about his journey into web development, the Vue.js ecosystem, what Directus is and why he chose Vue over other frameworks for it's extensible frontend.


Further, Rijk shares his thoughts on the Vue.js job market and how his "Quadruple Migration", over to the Composition API, Pinia, Vue 3 and Vite, went. As a cherry on top - this all started *very* early in the development cycle of Vue 3!


But the fun doesn't and there because Rijk comes with the one or the other hot take on topics like TypeScript and whether our libraries will be worse for JavaScript developers, testing, and many many other scenarios.

Data Fetching in Vue and Nuxt15 Nov 202400:46:02

Data fetching is a crucial part of any web application. In this episode of DejaVue, we discuss the different ways to fetch data in Vue.js and Nuxt.js, and how to cache it. 

We also talk about the experimental Suspense feature in Vue.js and how it can be used to improve the user experience, as well as how to handle third-party scripts in your application.

In addition, Nuxt's data fetching options are discussed, including the $fetch method, useFetch, useAsyncData and the useNuxtData composable. Finally, we cover server-side caching in Nuxt.js, including route rules, defineCachedEventHandler, and defineCachedFunction.

Enjoy the episode!
