Even though Schumer is a "human flat tire" he's right that the Dems have momentum. The message seems to be getting through that health care for Americans is what they're voting on now. The Dems support the people, the Repubs Don't see why they should care.

Learn to write insanely good composables in Vue

图片
If you're using Vue 3, you're probably using composables. But other than using VueUse where you can, how do you get the most out of them? Over the past few years I've been slowly putting together a list of patterns and best practices for how to write composables in the best way. ​ I've spent hours reading the source code of VueUse (one of the best — but most time-consuming — ways to learn it). ​ I've read articles, listened to talks, and written lots and lots of my own code. I ended up with 15 different patterns, and each one will help you to write better composables. ​ I've condensed and put all of these composables together into a course — Composable Design Patterns. ​ Get Composable Design Patterns now. ​ Because this is the launch, it's on sale for 35% off until Thursday. For each of the 15 patterns in this course, you'll get: A concise overview that tells you when and how to use it, along with variations and edge cases ...

This is the code we'll replicate: <!-- Parent --> < template >   < div  class = "modal-container" >     < div  class = "modal" >       Content in the Parent       < Child  class = "mb-4"  v-slot = "{ text }" > ...
