A Journey into Vue-Router

Illustrated notes on how routing works in Vue.js

Planted

I haven’t explored the Vue framework much but it’s got a thriving community, and I wanted to see how it compared to React, Svelte, and the 20 other font-end framework options.

I got to see inside the Vue-machine a little while working through Laurie Barth ’s egghead course on how to set up routes between Vue pages and components.

I made a few illustrated notes on the main concepts

Journey with Vue Router
To setup, install and import vue router, create an empty array of routes, and pass that array into a new router function
When making new routes, each one needs a path and a component. We can also pass parameters to our routes
The wild card path acts as a cacthall for unknown routes
