Vue Application
This generator will help you bootstrap a vue application pretty quickly. You will have a few choices for the core boilerplate. These choices will let you decide on which additional features (besides the ones in the Vue core) you would like to use. In the following section you'll get a short summary of the functionality and the libs we use to enhance our applications.
Core Features
The following core features are built into the generators root boilerplate.
Dependency Injection
This can be used to ease working with dependencies the right way. Also, this makes testing components much easier.
