DejaVue

Welcome to the fifth episode of DejaVue! While Michael is on paternity leave after becoming a father, Alex is joined by a special guest, Patrick van Everdingen, Full Stack Developer, Speaker, Panel Host an Co-Founder of CareerDeck.

In this episode, we talk about how Patrick started his Vue- and Nuxt-based side project, CareerDeck - and how it grew from an idea at a pool in Italy to a full-fledged application. From the initial idea to the current state of the application, we discuss the tech stack, the challenges, and also the future of CareerDeck.

Learn why Patrick chose Vue and Nuxt, why decided to rebuild the application again and how he uses AI to create real value for the users of CareerDeck.

Eventually, Patrick turns the tables and asks Alex about his thoughts on the future of Nuxt and how it compares to other frameworks like Laravel or NestJS, as well as the role of plain Vue in the ecosystem.

Enjoy the episode!
