Introduction
Vue 4 is on the horizon and promises to take the progressive framework to the next level. With core improvements and new tools, the Vue ecosystem continues evolving.
What we know about Vue 4
Although still in development, Vue 4 is expected to focus on performance. Evan You's team is working on a partial compiler rewrite to generate even more efficient code.
Enhanced Composition API
The Composition API gets improved type inference and new helpers like useModel for two-way binding with less boilerplate.
Vapor Mode
Vapor Mode, the new compiler without Virtual DOM, promises to drastically reduce memory usage and improve performance on low-end devices.
TypeScript Improvements
Vue 4 will have improved native TypeScript support, eliminating the need for defineComponent in most cases.
Roadmap
An alpha is expected by mid-2026 with a beta by the end of the year. The stable release will likely arrive in 2027.
