This DejaVue episode is a world premiere, with having two guests on the episode for the first time! And not only that, the topics are exciting too. Michael and Alex are joined by Dan and Zoey, both working at SIDESTREAM, an agency using Vue and Nuxt to realize projects.

But besides the project business, they also have Sidebase, a non-profit "spin-off" responsible for open-source Nuxt modules like @sidebase/nuxt-auth which some of you might know already!

Listen to the discussion around how doing Open Source benefits SIDESTREAM, how the Vue job market and hiring works, why Vue and Nuxt were chosen first of all and all around Nuxt Auth and further modules. Enjoy the episode!

This episode of DejaVue includes not only knowledge but also a certain degree of magic, as Alex and Michael meet up with the one and only TypeScript Wizard Matt Pocock. Together, they talk about how he became a full-time educator and what the pros and cons are, then of course discussing everything around TypeScript - from Types vs. Interfaces, any vs. unknown, Matt's ts-reset library, Flappy Bird in TypeScript and more amazing nuggets

It was teased in the last episode already and here it - Michael and Alex talk about the current hype in the front end development community: Signals. But if you as a Vue developer don't feel hyped around it and maybe even didn't hear much around it, fear no more - that is normal and will be explained in the episode too.

Join the two Vue experts covering the history of Signals, what's behind the term and how they work in Vue.js and other major frameworks.
And of course, the TC39 proposal to add Signals to the language itself wasn't forgotten either.

Enjoy the episode!
