Is this course right for you?

Our take
A thorough, current way to learn Vue.js properly once you know some JavaScript. It covers Vue 3 in depth.

Good for: javaScript developers who want to learn Vue.js in depth.

Skip if: you are new to JavaScript, or you prefer React or Angular.

Maximilian Schwarzmüller works through component fundamentals, the Composition API, Pinia for state, Vue Router, and connecting to back-end APIs, building real apps like a task manager and a full-stack blog. He compares the Options and Composition APIs so you understand both, and covers TypeScript integration.

It assumes you already know JavaScript, so it is not a first-programming course, and it is Vue specifically — if you prefer React or Angular, choose a course for those instead. On price, wait for a Udemy sale.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, and comfortably so. Vue is a JavaScript framework, so the course expects you to already handle the language itself — functions, objects, arrays, and modern ES6 features like arrow functions and destructuring. Maximilian includes a refresher, but it assumes you have seen these before. Coming in without a real JavaScript grounding is the most common reason people struggle, because you would be learning two things at once.

Yes. The course teaches current Vue 3, including the Composition API, which is the modern way to structure Vue components, while still keeping the older Options API material available so you can read both styles. Maximilian is known for revising his framework courses as the tools evolve, so what you learn reflects how Vue is actually written in current projects rather than legacy patterns.

A full path: components, reactivity, and directives to start, then Vue Router for multi-page apps, state management with Vuex, the Composition API for larger applications, and building real projects rather than isolated snippets. Max is well known for digging into why Vue behaves the way it does, so you come away understanding the mechanics, not just copying patterns.

React has the larger job market, especially in the US, and more openings overall, so if employability is your only concern it is the more pragmatic bet. Vue is loved for being cleaner and gentler to learn, is very popular in Europe and Asia, and is common in many companies and smaller teams. If you already have a specific job or codebase in mind, follow what it uses; otherwise React opens more doors, Vue is the more pleasant on-ramp.

For learning Vue properly from one clear teacher, it is among the most recommended options, backed by Maximilian's strong reputation across the JavaScript framework courses he has taught to millions. It is a paid Udemy course, almost always available at a steep discount rather than full price, with lifetime access and the ongoing updates he is known for as Vue continues to evolve.
