✨VueJs for Advocacy
🗣 Manisha Priyadarshini

VueJS is known for its dynamic abilities through its component structure which make it easy to quickly spring together single or multiple page apps. This talk will cover how to use the versatility of this stack to prototype advocacy projects leveraging design that are don't need a complex database structure with APIs that are easily integrated such as Airtable, Lob, or Notion to make impact faster.

We will also discuss the impact of community centered design that made this open source VueJS project deliver local wins around budget allocation for mutual aid, currently aiding state level impact on climate, and federal impact around civic rights. Rounding out the talk with best practices other VueJS maintainers can use to enhance the adoption and retention of volunteers.

Their favorite stacks include VueJS and Python, you can usually found her near an ocean or swinging through trees.

Thank you for your part in helping us cultivate a harassment-free experience for everyone regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, religion (or lack thereof), or technology choices. We do not tolerate harassment of our members or organizers.

Be kind to others. While VueNYC is a professional community, it's also a community of friends. We ask you to be aware of the fact that conversations that may be appropriate within the context of a specific friendship may not be appropriate in a public space or with someone you don't know well.

Be careful in the words that you choose. Remember that sexist, racist, and other exclusionary jokes can hurt those around you.

We also follow the Recurse Center's social rules, which are summarized below:

• No well-actually’s
• No feigned surprise
• No backseat driving
• No subtle -isms

The social rules are lightweight. You should not be afraid of breaking a social rule. These are things that everyone does, and breaking one doesn’t make you a bad person. If someone says, "hey, you just feigned surprise," or "that’s subtly sexist," don’t worry. Just apologize, reflect for a second, and move on
