VueJS [8]: A more Progressive Vue: Building a PWA using VueJS

Vue is a new, powerful framework for building real-world applications. Enterprise ready, with a rich and diverse ecosystem, Vue is the currently ranked as the #2 front end framework and is rapidly gaining on its older brother, ReactJS. Join us for our final presentation in a comprehensive series of session which will take you from blind novitiate to visionary VueJS expert in no time!

Together we have build a very robust and amazing application for both the web and for mobile clients. In this last session, we turn to the latest and greatest challenge for front-end developers: The Progressive Web App or PWA. Join us as we convert our VueJS-based app into a PWA enabling such features as:

  • 'Desktop' presence
  • Push notifications
  • Local Storage

We will then look at how we can deploy this PWA and provide the plumbing by which our users can first authorize and then install our PWA from our main 'marketing' or 'web-app' site.
