LaraNuxt Release

Thread to discuss properties and requirements for future LaraNuxt releases

@GautierDele I opened this thread to handle discussion about future development of the package.

First order of business: Consider making the TypeScript branch the default

Pros

• Typescript is a much nicer experience in development because strict types offer MUCH better instrumentation in IDEs.
• Typescript avoids most run time errors by raising them already at compilation time... in addition with the correct IDE configuration prevents devs from coding such errors in the first place
• Also with nuxt-property-decorator it is easy to define components as classes and thus should be more intuitive for people with OOP experience

Cons

• Some new syntax to learn, but it mostly concerns typing an interface definition

Second order of business: Consider Vuepress page for documentation and presentation

Vuepress allows to easily create a web page from Markdown files.
Features include (but are not limited to):

• easy to configure landing page
• automatic menu
• exchangeable and customizable templates

Of course the initial page in the package should show some info about the project, but as people might use this as template i think it should be kept minimal

Hello,

I don't really think typescript should be the default one. A lot of people going for Vue don't know TypeScript and it's sometime the reason why they choose Vue. We could still maintain it since it seems TypeScript is a good solution.

Considering VuePress, i quite like the idea but it seems that there is a new version of this documentation - maybe a new package that i can't find -> https://dev.auth.nuxtjs.org/
Might be just styling ? A lot of package are going by this, i will have a look

LaraNuxt doc can be found here: Pull Request #17 - nuxt-laravel.

• This is using nuxt content which seems nicer than vuepress
• I don't like the idea to implement this into nuxt-laravel because this is the LaraNuxt doc but the fact is that LaraNuxt is a template -> don't want to push docs to everybody packages
• This is just a pull request we can move easely the doc while developping it
