vue-pwa-boilerplate

A full-featured PWA template with webpack, hot-reload, lint-on-save, unit testing & css extraction.

Documentation

• This template builds on top of the main webpack template, so please refer to the webpack template docs.

• Check out the official Vue.js guide for general information about Vue that is not specific to this template.

Usage

This is a project template for vue-cli. It is recommended to use npm 3+ or yarn for a more efficient dependency tree.

$ npm install -g vue-cli
$ vue init pwa my-project
$ cd my-project
$ npm install
$ npm run dev

If port 8080 is already in use on your machine you must change the port number in /config/index.js. Otherwise npm run dev will fail.
