**Day 0 - Luna Park is NOT Vue.js and other frameworks.**  
Before installing Luna Park, I was sure that it was just a graphical shell for Vue.js, so I started studying the documentation. Vue.js.  
This is difficult to understand for a beginner. There are so many different file types, how it interacts with each other, what is the difference between **Properties** and **Variables**.  
I had to discard what I had read earlier and sit down to carefully re-read the documentation, which I think is written for very experienced users.

> There are many nodes whose purpose I don’t understand, and a weak description of the tooltips.

Luna Park is basically an IDE without code. The components files are very similar to Vue SFC (because it actually generate Vue SFC).

Properties can be pass to a component.

Let’s say, I create a component A with this propeties and variables:

If I create another component B (or a page) and include component A, I can set its properties.

Properties are passed from parent to children, so children can only ready them, not write them (there’s a special case with objects and models, tell me if you want precision on this).

Variables are just variables that you can use in your Logic. You can both write and read them.

Honestly, the current documentation is pretty poor… The new documentation is not online yet.

But I’ll happily answer anything before it’s available!

This is just my diary in which I would like to describe my feelings in order to understand the logic of a beginner. Based on this, messages are created in other topics. 😂
