Vue-js-modal: Developer setup terribly outdated

[Fusseldieb]

I've been trying to replicate the developer setup, running npm install and all necessary stuff to fix some stuff and make a pull request.

What I've found is that a lot of packages are outdated and contain (severe) security and performance issues. Trying to upgrade them breaks everything.

I was trying for almost 3 hours to fix those issues, but got stuck and finally gave up.

@euvl Help us out there. Would be nice if you do some "housekeeping" sometimes...

Thank you.

I've stopped doing "housekeeping" mostly because of posts like this. People demanding stuff to be done. With all the respect but I have my own life and you are using my code for free, without any extra terms. It saves either a bit of time/money to you or your company.. and what you do, you say "@euvl do more because it is not enough. I've spent 3 HOURS (!!!) while you were supporting this project for 2+ years and i'm not happy.".

Thanks. Waiting for your PR.

@euvl I'm not saying that I'm not happy. No need to get upset.

Also, I've seen there are some PR that are not yet accepted... Are those there because you are waiting for more to accept all of them one day or why?

I would love to actively contribute to this project and it's nice to see you answer, which means that you are still caring about GitHub and your projects somehow. I've seen other repos that simply got abandoned, no new "Owner" is set and the project "outdate" over time and die. I know that I could simply fork your project and continue on my own, but it's yours that is in the "spotlight" with over K's of downloads, so yeah...

I think now that I see that you are still here, I will continue to try to update all dependencies, clean some code and do a mayor PR. Not sure if today, but it needs to be done.

Great, thanks for your help 👍

I didn't mean to be rude, hopefully, you can understand me.

Also as you mentioned project abandoning, one of the main reasons why people abandon their projects, is pretty much, because of the pressure from users to deliver features and "fix their projects".

In my case, I get ± 10 messages a day saying that I either MUST to add a feature "X" or MUST fix "Y" because it is "wrong" and "does not work in my project", etc. It is super frustrating and seeing smth like"developer setup terrible", it is not exactly what i had in mind when started sharing my mini projects 😄

@euvl I just got it working through Vue-CLI 3, can/should I still continue (would be nice) or do you necessarily _want_ to use Webpack as standalone?
Webpack as a standalone was giving me too much hassle and I simply ditched support for it and now it works beautifully - less files and more maintenable in my opinion. It's still using Webpack, but behind the scenes controlled via the Vue-CLI, which means no (user) files.

Waiting for your reply to continue, implementing that change to the entire project and doing the stuff that needs to be done... 😄

If you are referring to the demo website - if it works with vue cli, feel free to use it 👍 I remember when i was writing the webpack config for it, there was no way to refer to the library in a parent/sibling folder in an easy way. The current config will refresh the website in case the plugin /dist is updated (hence, testing is easier). If you can achieve the same result with the newer tool - its awesome, feel free to make a PR 👍
