Developing state of the art web apps with QEWD-Up & NuxtJS/Vue.js

[wdbacker]

Hi developers,

I wrote a step by step tutorial in the qewd-howtos how you can write multi-page web apps using QEWD-Up and mainstream web frameworks. In particular with the latest NuxtJS/Vue.js frameworks, writing web applications becomes fun again, allowing you to write your applications very efficiently, hiding all boilerplate code from you.

The tutorial should be very easy to try out and consists of two parts:

- instructions for creating a basic QEWD-Up setup with WebSocket & REST endpoints using an InterSystems IRIS/Caché database

- instructions for creating a NuxtJS 3 front-end demo app (for the latest Nuxt beta version) or - alternatively - you can follow the instructions for the NuxtJS 2 front-end demo app (the current Nuxt production release)

You can simply clone both demo setups from GitHub and run them on your development machine where your IRIS development instance is running. The demo is kept as easy as possible, but it contains all major steps you need to start writing real-life apps.

If you have remarks or encounter issues, please create an issue in the relevant GitHub repo!

HTH,

Ward

Many thanks for writing this, Ward!  Presumably the tutorials should also work with YottaDB with the appropriate database configuration changes?

[wdbacker]

Yes, of course: with a very small change to the database configuration parameters in QEWD-Up, this will work on YottaDB too without any code changes!

Sounds great! Could you please indicate the config required for YottaDB?
