ROUTER ELIMINATES UNNECESSARY RESOLVES ON EVERY NAVIGATION

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Vue.js

Vue Router just killed a performance leak where every mounted RouterLink was re-resolving its destination on every page navigation, even when it had nothing to do with the current route.

The culprit: the `resolve` function was tracking `currentRoute` as a dependency even when it didn't need it [1]. That meant every navigation triggered a cascade of regex matching and param decoding across your entire link tree. Daniel Roe caught this while profiling Nuxt and shipped the fix [3], which stops `resolve` from depending on the current route when resolving absolute locations. Meanwhile, the router team also tightened type generation for route overrides [2], fixing a bug where params from override paths weren't reflected in generated types and absolute paths could still inherit ancestor params incorrectly [4]. On the VitePress side, the theme is getting stability fixes: layout shifts are now prevented when locking page scroll [5], and the outline now handles bottom overscroll properly [6]. The ecosystem-ci test suite has adapted to upstream dependency changes [7], keeping integration tests in sync as the wider Vue ecosystem evolves. Across all three repos, 13 commits and 9 PRs landed in the last 24 hours.
