JSJ 276: Vue.js with Maximilian Schwarzmüller          This episode of JavaScript Jabber features panelists AJ O’Neal, Aimee Knight, and Charles Max Wood. They talk with special guest Maximilian Schwarzmüller about Vue.js. Tune in to find out more! [00:02:21] Introduction to Maximilian Maximilian lives in Germany and is a self-taught web developer. He mostly teaches web development on Udemy and his YouTube channel. Vue.js is just one topic that he teaches. He enjoys teaching and passing on information to other web developers: he believes it is the best thing you can do. [00:03:10] What other courses do you teach? He tries to cover basic web development topics. On Udemy Maximilian teaches Angular and generic JavaScript courses. He also teaches courses on Angular and Node.js. On his YouTube channel he teaches more back-end development and Node.js courses. [00:04:00] Elevator Pitch for Vue.js Vue.js is a new framework that is popular because it is similar to React but also has Angular features. It is easier to learn than React: not everything is in JavaScript and JXS is not included. It is more also flexible and has better performance than Angular 1. Vue.js is easier than Angular 2 both to learn and master. It is still a JavaScript framework, where developers build single page applications or drop in existing applications to enhance views, control parts of a page with JavaScript, get rid of jQuery, and have an easier time creating applications. [00:05:10] What are some challenges people run into as they learn it? If developers are brand new to Vue.js, getting started is easy. It has one thing that a lot of frameworks lack which is awesome documentation. Vuejs.org has a comprehension guide that makes getting started simple. There is a general idea that developers still need to learn of how to structure the app, which is similar to React. Developers have to learn how to build components which is used to build the application. The build template is where everything is controlled with Vue.js. JavaScript code is used as well as template syntax. [00:06:27] So you build the template and then tell it how each part is supposed to behave with JavaScript? Yes. To get started use Vue instances, which are JavaScript objects, control parts of the page and it is marked by an id on an HTML element. Then, write a Vue template, which is basically HTML code where extra features can be used to easily output a variable. It makes it much easier to control via Vue instance. Then add a code, add a method which changes the property of Vue instance. It works together and is easy to build up templates and control your page with Vue.   [00:11:12] Vue’s Advantages That depends on the application. Vue.js is easier to learn, which is an advantage when trying to get new developers. The documentation on the website is excellent, which helps when learning the language. Vue also has it’s own single team that develops it’s products, such as the Vue Router and Vue X. It has better performance, but for extremely big projects Angular 4 may be better. [00:13:38] Does Vue have routing in it? Vue.js has its own router. The core Vue team develops it, which is a different package that is downloaded separately. The advantage to this is that if you don’t need the router, then you don’t have it in your bundle but can easily add it. Once it is added it integrates nicely. [00:14:16] How does the Vue router compare to the React router? The Vue router offers the same features as the React router: nested routes, passing parameters, route guards, etc. The Vue router integrates nicely into the Vue package. It also injects into every component you have and is very simple. All that has to be done is just to execute one line of code and then the router is in the project. [00:17:10] How often is Vue.js upgraded and how hard is it to keep up? Vue.js only has two versions. Upgrading from Vue 1 to Vue 2 is easy. The base syntax and framework is still the same, you just need to adjust and move on. Since Vue 2 they released bigger upgrades. There so far haven’t been any issues upgrading, they have added new features, and still use the old code. [00:19:09] What is the feature with Vue as far as adoption goes? It is hard to predict but there are indicators that Vue.js has a good future. Vue.js probably will not overtake Angular but it is becoming important for companies in Asia, which is an important market. They have developed an Ionic version of Vue.js. There has also been an ongoing trend on GitHub. [00:21:20] Why do we keep having new frameworks and versions? The language of JavaScript itself is seeing rapid development. New features have been added, new web technologies developed, etc. One reason is that developers do more on the web. They want easier ways of building applications. There is no perfect framework so there has to be tradeoffs between the frameworks. There is no perfect solution for every application so need a framework for every application. [00:23:16] What is left undone in Vue.js? It is complete as far as something can be complete. Developers are working on service rendering to improve search engine optimization and initial rendering performance. They are also working on progress web app support.   [00:28:02] What drives the way that Vue grows? There is simplicity in their documentation. While the documentation is simple, the framework is also easy to learn. Maximilian believes that the reason Vue.js took off is because the documentation and framework work together nicely. [00:31:19] What is going to keep Vue around? The support is not based on corporation, but there is an Asian company that is developing a framework that uses Vue to with their own product. Because of this, can draw an assumption that they will keep Vue.js around. Vue.js also has a strong community and core team, giving it a good support system. [00:34:15] What are people using if they want to use Native Apps but they want to use Vue? They are having a hard time right now. Frameworks for Quasar and Weex are in the early stages. A Vue.js app needs to be built but there are packages that are working in that direction. [00:37:25] How do you structure your Udemy courses and what do you think of that as a whole? Maximilian started teaching Udemy courses about one and a half years ago. He really enjoys teaching. Each course follows a similar pattern. He starts with a rough topic, researches the topic to see what is in demand, and builds a course around projects. He then fits all the things he wants to teach into the project, plans the course curriculum, records and edits the lecture videos, and then finally releases the course. [00:39:22] What do you get the most questions about with your Vue course? Questions are mixed. Students dive into the course quickly but then pause. Most questions are about the basics. They usually have something to do with the first few sections of the course or setup problems.

AiA 151: WebVR with Aysegul Yonet The panel for this episode of Adventures in Angular is Alyssa Nicoll, Joe Eames, Lukas Ruebbelke, and Charles Max Wood. Special guest Aysegul Yonet is here to discuss WebVR and visualizations. Tune in to learn more! [00:02:36] Can you really do VR with Angular? Yes. VR is a different kind of API. [00:03:07] Can you give a brief explanation of how Web VR works? Web VR is currently an experimental API. It creates 3D experiences that interact using the gamepad API. Angular and Web VR work together by writing more declarative experiences. [00:04:05] What do you mean by it being experimental? Things are changing quickly. Not all browsers are implemented. It has to be enabled in Chrome, it can be enabled in Firefox, but not all other browsers implement it. A 2.0 Web VR version is being created, which will be similar to the version that is out now. [00:05:05] VR in a Predictable Manner Not enabled in some of the browsers but can check it and leave a message. Once you have an available browser, there is a consistent interaction. [00:06:30] What kind of hardware is required to run the VR experience? VR is now very accessible to everyone because of Web VR. Google Cardboard is one of the cheapest ways. It is around $20. Samsung VR headset is free. Also can purchase cheap hand controls. Developers do not have to go through app stores to release a product, which makes it cheap for them as well. [00:08:30] What are three cases that you see Web VR that could be disruptive? One case is in the education field. Google Expedition is creating an app for teachers to create experiences for students to see different places such as museums. A second case is in the medical world. Web VR can be an amazing pain killer. It has been used in Leukemia patients. For example, kids don’t want to take medication but using VR they can fight the disease itself. A third case is the Smithsonian Museum in DC. Artwork was scanned through VR and 3D experiences created through that. [00:14:35] Where would you recommend we start to try out VR? A-Frame is the easiest to use for beginners. You don’t need to know how to use 3D. It has Angular components. There is also Play, where you can take any experience you want and work off of that. Sketchfab is an app where you can use 3D models. There is also a Google app that takes 360-degree 3D pictures and turns them into experiences. [00:16:44] Would those 3D pictures have sound or just an image? Yes, it does have sound as well. [00:17:52] Does A-Frame have components that you feed data to? It is just like any kind of Angular component. It seems foreign to web developers because you are creating a scene. But A-Frame makes it easy for you: just have to add the objects itself. You have components for a scene. [00:19:14] How do you program the interactions with objects in Angular/Web VR app? Interactions are not the easiest to program. Trying to solve the problem itself. You can take data through the Gamepad API. You can also use Itracking where you look at an object and select it. [00:20:14] How long have you been doing this? Not long - she was “dying to work with WebVR.” She had a chance to work with Play and had fun. [00:21:00] Could I built a desktop app with Electron? Will it work in Chromium? Yes. [00:21:20] Will it work in the embedded Safari or Chrome Views that you get on Android or the iPhone? Not sure. But it can be loaded unto a website and downloaded onto your phone. [00:23:00] Fairly approachable if you have a SmartPhone. MergeVR has a Goggle and Cube. It can create VR experiences for kids. The product is affordable: only $60 for Goggles and the Cube is $20. [00:24:20] How do you test it? Hard to test because it is visual based. There is a Chrome plug-in that helps. The mapping is very mathematical, which is an easy part to test.             [00:25:30] Is there anybody in the WebVR space that you admire? A-Frame team has done a great job. The 3JS creator Mr.Doob has been developing for a long time, before the community there is now. Companies have been using his stuff for years. Brandon Jones, who is implementing WebVR on the Chrome team. [00:34:47] How is VR development different from web development? Other than the interaction, writing the code isn’t all that different. The tool used was created for websites with 3D capabilities. Usability is different. There is an adjustment curve with VR: people navigate VR with a mouse better than with a headset.

Angular and Web VR work together by writing more declarative experiences. [00:04:05] What do you mean by it being experimental? Things are changing quickly. Not all browsers are implemented. It has to be enabled in Chrome, it can be enabled in Firefox, but not all other browsers implement it. A 2.0 Web VR version is being created, which will be similar to the version that is out now. [00:05:05] VR in a Predictable Manner Not enabled in some of the browsers but can check it and leave a message. Once you have an available browser, there is a consistent interaction. [00:06:30] What kind of hardware is required to run the VR experience? VR is now very accessible to everyone because of Web VR. Google Cardboard is one of the cheapest ways. It is around $20. Samsung VR headset is free. Also can purchase cheap hand controls. Developers do not have to go through app stores to release a product, which makes it cheap for them as well. [00:08:30] What are three cases that you see Web VR that could be disruptive? One case is in the education field. Google Expedition is creating an app for teachers to create experiences for students to see different places such as museums. A second case is in the medical world. Web VR can be an amazing pain killer. It has been used in Leukemia patients. For example, kids don’t want to take medication but using VR they can fight the disease itself. A third case is the Smithsonian Museum in DC. Artwork was scanned through VR and 3D experiences created through that. [00:14:35] Where would you recommend we start to try out VR? A-Frame is the easiest to use for beginners. You don’t need to know how to use 3D. It has Angular components. There is also Play, where you can take any experience you want and work off of that. Sketchfab is an app where you can use 3D models. There is also a Google app that takes 360-degree 3D pictures and turns them into experiences. [00:16:44] Would those 3D pictures have sound or just an image? Yes, it does have sound as well. [00:17:52] Does A-Frame have components that you feed data to? It is just like any kind of Angular component. It seems foreign to web developers because you are creating a scene. But A-Frame makes it easy for you: just have to add the objects itself. You have components for a scene. [00:19:14] How do you program the interactions with objects in Angular/Web VR app? Interactions are not the easiest to program. Trying to solve the problem itself. You can take data through the Gamepad API. You can also use Itracking where you look at an object and select it. [00:20:14] How long have you been doing this? Not long - she was “dying to work with WebVR.” She had a chance to work with Play and had fun. [00:21:00] Could I built a desktop app with Electron? Will it work in Chromium? Yes. [00:21:20] Will it work in the embedded Safari or Chrome Views that you get on Android or the iPhone? Not sure. But it can be loaded unto a website and downloaded onto your phone. [00:23:00] Fairly approachable if you have a SmartPhone. MergeVR has a Goggle and Cube. It can create VR experiences for kids. The product is affordable: only $60 for Goggles and the Cube is $20. [00:24:20] How do you test it? Hard to test because it is visual based. There is a Chrome plug-in that helps. The mapping is very mathematical, which is an easy part to test.             [00:25:30] Is there anybody in the WebVR space that you admire? A-Frame team has done a great job. The 3JS creator Mr.Doob has been developing for a long time, before the community there is now. Companies have been using his stuff for years. Brandon Jones, who is implementing WebVR on the Chrome team. [00:34:47] How is VR development different from web development? Other than the interaction, writing the code isn’t all that different. The tool used was created for websites with 3D capabilities. Usability is different. There is an adjustment curve with VR: people navigate VR with a mouse better than with a headset.
