This project is a simple timer application built with Vue 3 and TypeScript. The main goal of this project was to explore the new features and improvements in Vue 3, particularly in terms of TypeScript integration.
Instead of using Vuex for state management, I decided to use Vue's reactive function from the Composition API. This decision was made primarily because reactive provides better TypeScript support than Vuex.
With reactive, a reactive state object can be created where types can be defined for our state directly. This makes the state management code more type-safe and easier to reason about.
The toRefs function was also used to convert the reactive state object into a plain JavaScript object with reactive properties. This allows for easiuer passing of the state as props to child components and ensures that they can access and update the state correctly.
Vue 3 has significantly improved TypeScript integration compared to Vue 2. This project was an opportunity to explore these improvements and leverage the benefits of TypeScript in a Vue application.
To set up the project, run:
