About the Book
In this book, we will explore both the automatic reactivity feature provided by the Options API in Vue 2 and the added reactivity capabilities in Vue 3, which requires explicit usage of the Composition API. Vue 2's reactivity model can be perceived as automatic, as it handles reactivity behind the scenes without requiring explicit setup from developers. On the other hand, Vue 3's Composition API empowers developers with a more precise approach, providing increased control over the reactivity.
In the realm of reactivity, the Vue 3 framework doesn't seek to replace Vue 2 but rather extends its capabilities, adding a new dimension of possibilities and empowering developers with enhanced reactivity features. This ensures that both Vue 2 developers, who are accustomed to the automatic reactivity, and those transitioning to Vue 3 can work comfortably with the reactivity system that best suits their preferences and project needs. Get ready to explore the full potential of Vue.js reactivity in this exciting journey!
