WordPress plugin development with Vue.js

Master WordPress development: Build modern plugins with Vue.js, REST API, Hooks, and a reactive Admin Dashboard.

What you’ll learn
Build reactive WordPress admin interfaces using Vue.js to create a modern, app-like user experience within the dashboard.
Integrate the WordPress REST API with Vue.js to fetch, save, and update data dynamically without page reloads.
Set up a professional build pipeline using Vite to compile Vue components into WordPress-ready scripts.
Manage complex state within plugins using Vue composition API or Pinia to handle data across multiple plugin settings pages.

Requirements
Basic knowledge of PHP: Learners should understand variables, arrays, and functions, as WordPress is built entirely on PHP.
