Vue.js and Vuex Real World implementation

This project is my vue.js implementations of the Thinkster 'Real World' front end 'Conduit' which is a Medium clone.

This implementation is hosted here (https://vueconduit.z19.web.core.windows.net/)

The project is consistent with Vue.js and Vuex best practice, and as far as I can see, correctly implements the functionality of the 'Conduit' front end.

Includes,

  1. Vuex for state management
  2. Vue Router for routing
  3. Vue CLI for building and hosting locally
  4. vuex-map-fields

Running and Building the Project

Project uses the Vue CLI for build.

  1. Install the Vue CLI globally.
  2. Run npm install to resolve all dependencies.
  3. Run npm run serve
  4. In a browser navigate to http://localhost:8080/
