Terminology

Question 1

Define “hot reloading”.

Answer 1

Making updates to the UI without altering the current state of elements/components on the page (i.e. filled-in form data remains as updates to the UI are implemented).

Question 2

What is the difference between a “string template” and a “DOM template”?

Answer 2

A string template is one that is defined within a .vue file or a Vue.component({}). DOM templates are defined within an HTML file (used when you don’t use a build system and instead directly include Vue into a page).
