Our series on building Connect Four with Vue.js continues by setting up automated deployment to Amazon S3 with CircleCI and the command line tool s3deploy

In this post for the Building Connect Four with Vue.js and Phoenix series, we'll implement an algorithm for detecting four-in-a-row with JavaScript and display the results to our Vue.js components.

Continuing our series on building Connect Four with Vue and Phoenix, we'll use Vue transitions and a third party library to animate the SVG checkers falling and bouncing into place when added to the game board.

Continuing our Connect Four series, we will take a look at converting a static HTML representation of a Connect Four board and add functionality and dynamic rendering with Vue.js.

An application of the technique of SVG pattern transparent to render a Connect Four board with transparent portholes.
