    Vue.js Recipe App

    Made this cool, fun recipe app using Vue.js, MealDB, tailwind, vuex, and vite. It was really fun playing with vue.js, I’d only done short tests and very small, mostly static projects in vue.js before this. The tutorial on it was on YouTube by Codaholic. Good video! It’s live on Netlify
