Vue DeferRendering API

The DeferRendering is a widget that waits for its content to be ready before rendering it. While the content is getting ready, the DeferRendering displays a loading indicator.

import DxDeferRendering from "devextreme-vue/defer-rendering"

DevExtreme widgets are integrated with many popular libraries and frameworks. See the Installation section (for JavaScript libraries) or the Prerequisites and Installation section (for ASP.NET MVC framework) to find details on setting up DevExtreme with a particular library or framework.

The following code shows how to create the DeferRendering widget using every supported library and framework. For more details on working with widgets in these libraries and frameworks, see the Widget Basics topic for jQuery, Angular, AngularJS, Knockout or ASP.NET MVC.
