Using the V-cloak directive in Vue

in this article, you will learn how to use the V-cloak directive in Vue.

In simple terms, the v-cloak directive is used to hide an element while vue is mounting; it works best with a CSS property.

Here is a basic instance of using the directive:

we first declare a property in our css that makes reference to the cloak:

<style scoped>
[v-cloak] {
  display: none;
}
</style>

We then add the v-cloak directive to the intended element.

<template>
  <div v-cloak>
    <p>Hello there, I am {{ name }}</p>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  data() {
    return {
      name: "Jane Doe"
    };
  },
};
</script>

<style scoped>
[v-cloak] {
  display: none;
}
</style>
