Build a Vue.Js E-Commerce App with ButterCMS Headless Backend

"I'm a developer, not a God d*mn point & click machine."

That's my dev friend Nic. We're talking e-commerce.

Few pints in and he cranks up the ranting:

"You know what I don't like? Here:

Coding in a closed ecosystem
Rigid all-in-one platforms for everyone and their dog
Not choosing my tech stack

If you want that Shopify site so bad, you can do it yourself, you don't need ME (dev)."

I love Nic.

And he's right: there's a plethora of cool frameworks/tools out there. Why not create a custom, kick*ss shopping experience with these instead?

Today I want to use Vue.js to show you that's possible. Because yeah, Vue.js e-commerce is a thing!

And with the right set up in the backend—headless content management, namely— it can be a darn cool thing.

Enough babbling, here's what this Vue e-commerce example will include:

How to create a neat, frontend Vue storefront
How to integrate a customizable HTML/JS cart in a Vue app
How to hook the Vue e-comm. app with headless ButterCMS

Now let's make my friend Nic proud, shall we?
