Working with Vue.js

Excited to share my latest project, Zag.js

UI components powered by State Machines.

Zag is a collection of framework agnostic, accessible widgets (like an accordion, menu, dialog, etc.) that can be used in React, Vue, & Solid.js.

This project leans heavily on my recent experiments with XState and finite state machines.

Key Goals of Zag:

•  Write once, use it everywhere 
•  Focus on accessibility 
•  Headless. Bring your styling solution 
•  Powered by state machines

Today I started working on vue-md3, a Vue component library with styles based on Google's Material You design system.  This was my first time working with Storybook, and I love it!  It makes documenting components super easy, even when you're pulling them in from another project.

Added social media sharing. Built the social media sharing functionality for the Satellite Dashboard, a collaboration between the Secure World Foundation (SWF), the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), and the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at the University of Texas at Austin.

Add copyright component for use in header/footer. Created a Vue component for use in the Satellite Dashboard, a a collaboration between the Secure World Foundation (SWF), the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), and the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at the University of Texas at Austin.

After stalling on creating a portfolio page up and running I finally got https://kavinjey.xyz/ working 🎉 🔥
 
Got a lot more planned for this site but whats nice is now  I have a more standard way of  creating frontends. Faced some hurdles while using Nuxt/Vue that I'll probably write about soon but I dig the ecosystem and its refreshing not having to write React code

Launched Chakra UI Vue with Jonathan.

Shortly after launching Chakra UI React, Jonathan reached out to show me how he's working on a Vue.js version of Chakra UI.

I collaborated with him for another 5-6 months to help launch @chakra-ui/vue.

You'd think I should get some rest after launching the React version but it seems the reward for good work is "more work". Hehe 😁
