QuickStart a Vue.js Store Locator App Using a Headless CMS API
Cosmic JS offers a headless CMS that enables content managers and developers to work better together. By providing an intuitive Admin Dashboard, powerful APIs, and flexible user roles, applications are built faster, more light-weight, and your whole team ends up saving time in the process. Cosmic JS is unopionated about the content models employed, as well as the format of content Objects being managed. In this example blog we'll utilize Cosmic JS to quickstart a store locator built using Vue.js, Vuex and the Google Maps API.
To demonstrate how easy it is to get started with Cosmic JS, we'll utilize the Cosmic JS CLI to quickstart a Vue.js Store Locator built using Vue.js, Vuex and the Google Maps API. It will be locally downloaded to your command line tool and available to connect with your Cosmic JS Bucket Dashboard.
