Show Notes

[00:00:45] Michael talks about his blog and how he got started with Vue, what his motivation was, and what his first blog post was about.

[00:03:21] Reusable components is discussed as well as the biggest pain points that people run into when creating reusable components and what people responded most to.

[00:08:16] Tessa asks Michael how would we know when you would reach for something like this inheritable slot in slot solution, since it his recent newsletters he talks about the idea of 6 levels of reusability and is this a tool that developers can use? He also tells us what the process was like to identify the architecture patterns and how he came up with that.

[00:10:02] Michael tells what it means it means to have a component that is clean versus a reusable component.

[00:14:50] Tessa wants to know how Michael comes up with his ideas and she refers to talk he did at VueConf Toronto 2019.

[00:16:38] Chris asks Michael what patterns he’s used in the past that he most regrets. He also tells us why middleware was such a headache after he implemented it.

[00:19:53] Michael tells us the component he’s been responsible for that he’s regretted the most. He mentions a blog post he wrote about this. He also mentions the gold plating syndrome.

[00:27:19] Tessa asks Michael if she was a developer coming into a project and thinking I want to build a library, how do I decide what works for me or how do I find a balance there?

[00:33:19] Chris gives us a really useful tip when he refactors components.

[00:42:53] Tessa wants to know when Michael’s blog post will come out about when to use provide and inject and how it’s different from dependency injection.
