Quasarians in Action #32. With Staff pick of the Week!

[s.molinari]

We would like to thank all of you, our awesome Quasar community. And in a spirit of give and share we’d like to present our cherry-picked community contributions with you. One of the contributions is picked by the team as our “Pick of the Week” to honor who we felt made the best contribution (outside of the core team).

In the News

Our first ever online world conference was a fair success! We had at the peak moments just over 300 viewers. Thanks goes once more to the viewers who watched and to speakers for their participation.

If you haven’t yet been able to watch it, enjoy!

Razvan’s health

As most of you know, Razvan had gotten pretty ill a few weeks ago. The good news is, he’s well on his way to recovery and we can welcome him back with open arms in the not to distant future.

Tip of the Week

Use v-if and not v-show in certain situations.
