midcode + VueNext release

A visual editor for Vue apps.

midcode opens a Vite + Vue project on a live canvas and edits the <template> of its single-file components: text, classes, attributes, new elements and their order. Your <script> and anything in {{ }} are left exactly as written. It runs Vite with your config and one plugin of its own.

Free for 3 days, no card. Then one payment, yours for life.

v1.1.2Today’s version opens Vue projects to check every breakpoint and leave comments for your agent. Editing on the canvas ships with the next release.

01/What you can do

What midcode does with Vue.

  • Click to code

    Select any element and read where it’s written: the file and the line. Copy that reference into your agent, or open the file on that line.

  • Edit text in place

    Double-click a heading, a button or a paragraph and type. The new text replaces the old one in the file, and nothing else in it changes.

  • Every breakpoint at once

    Your site runs live at Desktop, Tablet and Phone, side by side, at full page height. A style set on one breakpoint is written for that breakpoint.

  • Swap images and video

    Drop a new image on an element, or paste one with ⌘V. midcode copies the file into your project and rewrites the reference.

  • Drag to reorder

    Move an element before, after or inside another one, on the canvas or in Layers. The markup moves in the file, with the comment above it.

  • Undo for every edit

    Each change is one entry in the history and one line in Publish. ⌘Z takes it out of the file again.

02/How it works

Three steps. No new workflow.

  1. Step 1: Open the project folder

    midcode starts Vite with a config of its own that loads yours and tags each element of your templates with its file and line.

  2. Step 2: Edit on the canvas

    Each change is written into the template. Hot reload shows it on every breakpoint.

  3. Step 3: Publish

    Review what changed, then commit and push in one step.

03/Good to know

The honest part.

What it doesn’t do

  • Text that comes from {{ }} is edited where the value is written, not on the canvas.
  • A component’s props aren’t edited from the panel yet: you select its elements, not the instance.
  • Dragging in something that needs an import isn’t there yet for .vue files.

04/FAQ

Vue questions. Short answers.

Yes. midcode edits the template and doesn’t read or rewrite your script, so it works with either style.

It edits the static class attribute. A :class binding is an expression, and midcode leaves expressions alone.
