how to post laravel using Vue.js - laravel

Question

I'm trying to figure out how to use vue.js, I want to still store the date in a MySQL database when a post has been submitted, as well having the post show instantly like ajax(without the page refreshing).
Here is my code thus far, here is a rough sketch, I'm still trying to wrap my head around so please bear with me
dashboard.blade.php
#extends('layouts.layout')
#section('title')
Dashboard
#endsection
#section('content')
<div class="dashboard eli-main">
<div class="container ">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 col-md-12">
<h1>{{$user->username}}</h1>
<h4>What do you have to say?</h4>
<form action="{{ route('post.create') }}" method="post">
<div class="form-group">
<textarea class="form-control" name="body" id="body" rows="5" placeholder="Your Post"></textarea>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="mybtn2">Create Post</button>
<input type="hidden" value="{{ Session::token() }}" name="_token">
</form>
#foreach($posts as $post)
<article class="post">
<h4>{{ $post->user->username }}</h4>
<p class="post-bod">
{{ $post->body }}
</p>
<div class="info">
made on {{ date('F d, Y', strtotime($post->created_at)) }}
</div>
</article>
#endforeach
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script>
var app = new Vue({
el: 'post-bod',
data: {
post: body
}
})
</script>
#endsection
