Vue JS color

Hey guys!! I just finished the tutorial, but I have one thing that I dont know, that is when the style set to 'item', is the 'item' referring to the v-for 'item'?

I just want to know where does the value come from.

Thank you so much!!

I know this is a year old, but to answer your question:

<li v-bind:style="{color:color}" v-for="color in rainbow">{{color}}</li>
  • The first property of 'color' is referring to the CSS selector to change the text color.
  • The second property-- between the colon ( : ) --is referring to the item we want to apply the style to.

We can name the item any name we want, such as 'basketball', like so:

<li v-bind:style="{color:basketball}" v-for="basketball in rainbow">{{basketball}}</li>

Hope this helps!
