#194: 🎉 Vue.js v3.1 "Pluto" Released! 🎉 New UI frameworks for Vue 3.0; Videos from VueConf.us 2021

June 14 · Issue #194 · View online

Hey there,

🐶 Great news – Vue v3.1 “Pluto” has been released! It comes with several performance improvements, minor breaking changes (no worries, those most likely don’t affect you), and lots of bug fixes!

There are also some additional, experimental features like CSS variable injection and “experimental setup”. You can read more about those features (and other changes in v3.1) here.

But likely the most important part is that the migration build is now stable. The migration build is a build of Vue 3 that runs in a backward compatibility mode mimicking Vue 2.x APIs. This allows you to replace Vue 2 while still keeping most of your code untouched. The migration guide has also been updated. Check it out!

Another great news – the Vue-Devtools will now support Vue apps running in an iframe!

As Vue 3 is getting more mature, the need fore UI component libraries raises. Here are some new contenders:

Finally, the recordings from VueConf.us are now available! Here are my favorites:

Component Testing with Vite, Vue, and Cypress by Jessica Sachs
The Vue 3 Composition API by Natalia Tepluchina
Component Library / Accessibility by Jonathan Bakebwa

Cheers,

— Damian Dulisz
