Unlock the Power of Vue.js with vno and Deno
What is vno?
Imagine a world where configuring a Vue.js application using Deno is a breeze. Thanks to vno, that world is now a reality. vno is a parser, compiler, and bundler that provides an integrated CLI tool, allowing you to create an entire project from scratch or optimize an existing Vue project with ease.
The Benefits of Using vno
With vno, you can enjoy a faster development cycle, fewer dependencies, and no node_modules. You’ll also appreciate the ease of configuration and enhanced security features.
Pros of vno
- Faster Development: Create new Vue applications quickly with fewer dependencies required.
- No nodemodules: Say goodbye to the large nodemodule folder.
- Easy Configuration: Adjust options like server files, port numbers, and project titles with vno’s pre-built configuration file.
- Enhanced Security: vno is built on top of Deno, ensuring your project has no default access to external scripts, file systems, or networks.
Cons of vno
- No Hot Reloading: vno currently doesn’t support hot reloading, requiring you to restart the project and reload the page.
- No Server-Side Support: vno doesn’t support building server-side applications (SSR) yet, but this feature is planned for future development.
- No Scoped Styling: Scoped CSS styling is still in development and not currently supported.
Getting Started with vno
Before you begin, make sure you have Vue, a command-line interface (CLI), and Deno installed.
Installing Deno and vno
Install Deno using scoop, and then install vno using the latest stable version. Don’t forget to add.deno\bin to your PATH.
Creating Your First vno App
Run the command to create a new application, and then CD into your new app directory and serve the app. You’ll see the app rendered on your browser.
vno Directory Structure
- components: Contains all your application components
- public: Holds an index.html file where built files are injected
- vno-build: Automatically generated when you run vno commands
- App.vue: Your app entry point
- vno.config.json: Configure your app further by editing this file
Building Your vno App
Run the command to generate a new vno-build folder, and then create an index.html file that links the build.js and style.css files together.
vno’s Parsing Process
vno recursively walks through your file structure, locates all.vue files, and begins the parsing process, isolating individual components and accounting for connections between files.
vno as an API
You can integrate vno into your application without installing the vno CLI by importing it with a URL or setting up a vno.config.js file.
