Tweetables:

  • “Declarative code is best when you write it out and it's easy for people to follow. When written as shorthand, v-bind can obfuscate that.” — @EnjoyTheVueCast [0:12:21]
  • “I’m not used to a lot of decision-making being yielded to the template. So it's surprising to me that something like the order of attributes would be something that the template is responsible for.” — @EnjoyTheVueCast [0:23:34]
  • “Software is an iterative process. Always check the docs for the latest updates because sometimes we are human when we make these design decisions.” — @EnjoyTheVueCast [0:30:00]
