- Component-Based Architecture: Build reusable components for better code organization.
- Directives: Special attributes that provide functionality to HTML elements.
- Computed Properties: Define properties that depend on other data properties.

<h1>{{ message }}</h1>
<button @click="reverseMessage">Reverse Message</button>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
message: 'Hello, Campsite!'
},
methods: {
reverseMessage() {
this.message = this.message.split('').reverse().join('');
}
}
});
</script>
Directives
Vue.js uses special attributes called directives to add behavior to your HTML elements.
v-bind: Binds attributes to data properties.v-model: Creates two-way data bindings on form input elements.v-if: Conditionally renders elements based on data properties.v-for: Renders a list of items based on an array.
Reactivity
Vue.js automatically updates the DOM when the underlying data changes. You can define reactive properties within the data object.
<div id="app">
<input v-model="name" placeholder="Enter your name">
<p>Hello, {{ name }}!</p>
</div>
<script>
new Vue({
el: '#app',
data: {
name: ''
}
});
</script>
