Aplóe ​

Lightweight and Minimalistic Vue.js Components and Styles for Informational Websites

Technologies ​

Aplóe is meant to be quick and easy, that's why it's built for Vue.js 3 projects with Vite. The project is build with TypeScript, and it's optimized for Vue I18n for translations. The design is based on the Aplós theme, and it uses the Inter font for text and Geist Mono for code snippets.

The project is also designed to be mobile-friendly, with a responsive design that works on any device.

Configuration ​

Aplóe is designed to be as easy to use as possible, with a simple configuration that can be easily customized. Each project based on Aplóe will provide an .env.aploe file where the basic configuration will be stored.

It's currently not implemented, but it's planned for the future, as the project is still in development.

Structure ​

Aplóe offers a wide range of customizable components. With just a single element, you can easily customize these components to suit your needs. Here's an example:

<CarData
  title="livecars.title"
  description="livecars.desc"
  icon="globe"
  api="https://api.example.org:1234/api/get_cars"
  fallback="1000"
  background="#c0e2de83"
  iconColor="green"
/>

The example above is a simple component that displays specific content from an API. There are also other components, such as ExternalLink that is an component with a link to an page/website, like this:

<ExternalLink
  title="external.title"
  description="external.desc"
  link="https://example.org/"
  icon="globe"
  background="#c0e2de83"
  iconColor="green"
/>

All elements are designed for easy translation, with the title and description being connected to the vue-i18n library.

More complex components, such as the Header, Footer and other provide slots for more customization, but the basic structure is the same.

Design ​

By it's words, Aplóe includes a design language, following specific styles to make the page as unified as possible. The goal of the framework is to make it as adaptive and easy to read on any devices, making sure that anyone can access the information from anywhere in the world. That's also why translation are such a big part of the project. To make the design work, much of the basic styles were taken from Aplós, the VitePress theme. With that creating simple blend cards as elements to create a visually appiling for of an website.

Template ​

Aplóe is still in heavy development, once it's mature enough, and gets a stable release, a template will be created to make it easier to start a project with Aplóe. The template will include all the necessary files and configurations to start a project with Aplóe, and it will be easy to customize and extend. The template will also include a basic example of how to use the components and styles provided by Aplóe. More information about the template will be provided once it's ready.
