What are Vue directives and how do they work?

Vue directives are special tokens in the markup that tell the library to do something to a DOM element. They are prefixed with a v- to indicate that they are Vue-specific. Directives provide reactive functionality and enhance the template syntax.

Here’s how they work:

  1. Binding: Directives bind data to the DOM.
  2. Modifiers: You can apply modifiers to alter the directive's behavior.
  3. Examples: Common directives include v-bind, v-model, and v-for.

Example of using v-bind:

<div v-bind:class="{ active: isActive }">Hello</div>
