Recommended IDE Setup

VSCode + Volar (and disable Vetur) + TypeScript Vue Plugin (Volar).

Type Support for .vue Imports in TS

TypeScript cannot handle type information for .vue imports by default, so we replace the tsc CLI with vue-tsc for type checking. In editors, we need TypeScript Vue Plugin (Volar) to make the TypeScript language service aware of .vue types.

If the standalone TypeScript plugin doesn't feel fast enough to you, Volar has also implemented a Take Over Mode that is more performant. You can enable it by the following steps:

1. Disable the built-in TypeScript Extension
   1. Run Extensions: Show Built-in Extensions from VSCode's command palette
   2. Find TypeScript and JavaScript Language Features, right click and select Disable (Workspace)
2. Reload the VSCode window by running Developer: Reload Window from the command palette.

Customize configuration

See Vite Configuration Reference.

Project Setup

Customize the services/BackEndCalls.js file to point to your back end server

Customize the following line in that file to point wherever your back end is located:

baseURL: http://localhost:5000/api/v1

or another production-like example:

baseURL: https://api.vue-social-space-church.org/api/v1

Customize the file called 'LandingPage.vue' in the views folder

Edit the landing page (views/LandingPage.vue) to reflect your church or organization name

The default file reflects the demonstration website name
