What will be building in this course?

We'll be building a real-time news feed called NuxtNews, where users will be able to see live news headlines as they are published from around the world, search through them with search terms, by date and search criteria, where users can select headlines by their country, by news category, by news source, and take a look at these headlines as individual pages within our app. And when users are authenticated (using JSON Web Tokens and the Firebase Auth REST API), they will be to bookmark the headlines they want to save and put within their own personalized news feed, comment on articles of their choosing and like / upvote comments by other users on those individual headline pages.

It's truly a fully-featured application where you'll learn tons of Nuxt / Vue concepts along the way, so let's dive in!
