What we built

Vue.js Forge Episode 4 powered by Kadena is just a few weeks away, so get ready to flex your Vue.js coding muscles because this time round we’re going to build a crowdfunding app: A Kickstarter Clone with Vue.js and Web 3!

What’s new and exciting?

Code with Blockchain
Learn about Crowdfunding
Discover Web 3

This is an excellent opportunity to dabble in the decentralized web, all within the context of a Vue.js application, and interact with smart contracts via JavaScript.

How it works

Take the first step and sign up for free with your email.

Create your Vue.js developer profile

Check your inbox for a profile survey. Complete this so we can get to know you better, including what you expect, where you are from and your skillset. This really helps planning.

Get a head start

Once you’re in, we’ll be sending out details of the project, how to prepare for the challenge, who the speakers are, what tools and technology will be used plus much more.

Meet your team or go solo

You have a choice to join the Discord server and be part of a team working together or you can simply join the stream and enjoy the live coding sessions by the experts.

Create together. Learn together.

Challenge yourself with hands on exercises throughout the event but don’t take it on alone. Bounce ideas off of each other, help one another defeat bugs, share your coding tips and tricks, and more.

Get expert advice

Each team will have access to experienced mentors who can help answer questions and solve bugs. In addition, relevant domain experts have been lined up to give targeted talks throughout the event.

Live Coding Sessions

The Vue School team and other community experts will host LIVE instructional sessions on the latest Vue developments and ecosystem to help guide your development of “the project”. These session will complement your hands-on code development that will happen over the 2 days.

Go out with a bang

At the end of the event, maybe you finished “the project” or maybe you didn’t. Either outcome, you’ll leave with more experience, more knowledge, a larger network of contacts, and maybe even a few new friends or future co-founders.

Why Participate

Great and very active organizing team, I loved being a part of this event and this awesome line up.

Senior Software Engineer @Microsoft

I was honored to be chosen as a presenter to the first ever Nuxt Nation. VeriToll has much success migrating to Nuxt and building prototype in a serverless architecture that we wanted to share our experience. The presentation platform was easy to use and made it simple to present our slides. Although I would have enjoyed being able to see the audience, it was wonderful that the moderator was able to ask me questions on behalf of the audience. The team did a great job with the pre-conference preparation, staging before the presentation, and the execution of the conference. I encourage others to consider submitting a proposal for the next Nuxt Nation.

It was a pleasure to work with the Vue School team on the first Vue.js Nation conference. I was surprised by the level of preparedness and detail in planning, as well as how much they cared about the attendees, their speakers, and the Vue.js community in general. And the attendee feedback after the event was incredibly supportive and heartwarming - really shows how nice of an event it was. We're blessed to have people like these who consistently provide value to the community by offering stellar courses, books, talks and engagement for all Vue.js enthusiasts out there! Looking forward to more collaborations and awesome content!
