Build Vue Image Placeholder using TDD

This is the source code for Writing your first Vue component using TDD. In this tutorial we'll learn the basic concepts of Test Driven Development (TDD) building a simple, reusable Vue component with Typescript called ImagePlaceholder to fetch images from LoremFlickr, a simple images service to get random images specifying parameters like width, height, filters, categories.. inside a url.

For example to get an image 320x240 from Brazil or Rio you can fetch https://loremflickr.com/320/240/brazil,rio

There are a lot of options in LoremFlickr, in this tutorial we'll focus on developing a simple component to get an image from LoremFlickr with a specific width and height and filtering by categories.

Use it in your app

import ImagePlaceholder from 'vue-image-placeholder';

<ImagePlaceholder width=500 height=250 images="dog" />

Props height and images are optional.
