This is going to be a pretty quick post.  Two weeks ago, we looked at how use watchers in Vue.js.  This week I figured that we would look at computed properties and methods.

In the above example, we are taking Date.now() and outputting it to the screen four ways:

• • Directly as {{Date.now()}}
  • As the variable time
  • As a computed value
  • As a method

What’s the functional difference between the three?  In this case, very little. 🙂

So, what if we bind to our component’s data instead of to Date.now()?

So, now the value can actually update? 🙂

Have an idea of how to take this further? Feel free to drop a comment below.
