What is $child property in Vue.js?

In Vue.js, the $child property is just like $parent property, but it is used to access the child instance.

In Vue.js, there is no $child property. If you encounter a question asking about $child property in Vue.js, the correct answer would be that there is no such property.

In earlier versions of Vue.js (prior to version 2.2.0), there used to be a $children property which was an array containing all direct child components of a Vue instance. However, it’s generally not recommended to directly access or manipulate child components in this way due to Vue’s reactive data flow and encapsulation principles.

Instead, the recommended approach is to use props to pass data from parent components to child components, and emit events to communicate changes from child components to parent components. This ensures a more predictable and manageable component hierarchy.
