Vue 3

It’s out! Congrats to the Vue team for getting it done, I know it was a massive effort and a long time coming. All new docs, as well.

17.9.2020
Pirátská zátoka se zbavila své domény piratebay.org. Někdejší správci neprodloužili platnost a doména skončila na tržišti DropCatch, kde se o ni strhl litý boj. Nový majitel za ni nakonec zaplatí 50 tisíc dolarů.

Setting up and Customizing the Ant Design System in a Nuxt App
9.9.2020
I don’t typically work with UI libraries because they can be cumbersome and hard to override, which can contribute to a bloated. However, Ant Design has recently gained some some of my affection because it’s easy to use, has extensible defaults, and features a delicate design.
Nuxt and...
Designing a JavaScript Plugin System
