Vue Components
1. Chapter Introduction
Components are the core of Vue's architecture. A Vue application is a tree of components — each is a self-contained, reusable unit with its own template, logic, and styles. Building UI as components makes code modular, testable, and maintainable.2. Learning Objectives
- Understand the Single File Component (SFC) structure.
- Create and use child components.
- Register components globally and locally.
- Pass data between parent and child.
- Build a user dashboard with multiple components.

8. Common Mistakes
-
Not using
<style scoped>: Withoutscoped, your component's CSS will affect ALL components globally, causing style conflicts.
- Circular imports: ComponentA imports ComponentB which imports ComponentA. Break the cycle by restructuring.

- Q: When would you use global vs local component registration?
11. Summary
Vue's component system with SFCs encapsulates template, logic, and styles in.vue files. Local imports are preferred for treeshaking. Global registration is appropriate for frequently-used base components. Slots enable powerful composition patterns — parent components can inject content into child component templates.
