Create components and preview their code 2. Set up different views/routes 3. Establish parent-child component relationships 4. See their application architecture in tree format 5. export the component architecture as a Vue application created with the default Vue CLI settings. <p align="center"> <img width="1000" src="src/assets/prevue.png?raw=true"> </p> ## Getting Started --- Download for [MacOS](https://s3.amazonaws.com/prevue-app/PreVue-1.0.0.dmg), [Linux](https://s3.amazonaws.com/prevue-app/PreVue_1.0.0_amd64.deb), or [Windows](https://s3.amazonaws.com/prevue-app/PreVue+Setup+1.0.0.exe) ###### Support for Windows now here! - Mac users only: for now you might need to go to your security settings to allow the app run on your system as we do not have an Apple license yet.
