So far, we have learned how to build web applications and microservices with Angular and React as the client-side framework. Vue.js is one of the popular client-side frameworks that has been gaining momentum in recent times. It has a great community and is completely driven by its community, unlike Angular and React, which are backed by corporations. JHipster supports using Vue.js as the client-side by providing an official blueprint. In this chapter, we will learn how to use the official Vue.js module and about the technical stack that's used for Vue.js.
Blueprints are plugins for JHipster that help replace a specific part of the code that's generated for the application.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Installing and using a JHipster Blueprint
- Generating an application with Vue.js client-side
- Technical stack and source code
- Generating an entity with Vue.js client-side
