Vue Component not showing text when called from blade.php file - laravel

Question

I have a basic vue 2.6.11 component that lives in a laravel 6 application. It lives at resources/js/components. I create a basic component and then in my app.js file I have vue imported and I define my vue component. Then in my app.blade.php I use the vue component but the text within my <template><div>Text here</div></template> does not appear on the screen. The <h1> text appears but not the vue component text. I looked at other posts but the vue versions other questions on here use are 2-3 years too old and don't apply. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
TableDraggable.vue
<template>
<div>
<h1>Test Text</h1>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
mounted() {
console.log('this component has been mounted');
}
}
</script>
What I am using in my app.blade.php file
<h1>This is a test to see if VUE is working</h1>
<table-draggable></table-draggable>
app.js snippet
//Bring in VUE and vue draggable
window.Vue = require('vue');
import VueDraggable from 'vuedraggable';
Vue.component('table-draggable', require('./components/TableDraggable'));

Answer 1

In app.js try the following:
...
window.Vue = require('vue');
import VueDraggable from 'vuedraggable';
Vue.use(VueDraggable);
import TableDraggable from './components/TableDraggable';
Vue.component('table-draggable', TableDraggable);
const app = new Vue({
el: '#app',
data() {
return {};
},
});
...
Then in some parent element of where you are using your component, make sure it has an id of app. eg:
<div id="app">
<h1>This is a test to see if VUE is working</h1>
<table-draggable></table-draggable>
</div>
This is a basic example of getting vue working on your site, and not necessarily the best way to be structuring your assets depending on your needs. The biggest considerations about how to structure these are how bulky your assets will become if you include everything in app.js.
