When it comes to geocoding, being able to convert addresses to latitude and longitude coordinates so they can be displayed on a map is not the only use-case. A lot of times being able to geocode an address makes for great address validation to see if an address actually exists. Take for example a tutorial written by Jayson DeLancey titled, Street Address Form Validation with React.js and HERE Geocoder Autocomplete. In this tutorial, he demonstrated how to accept user input, offer suggestions, and ultimately check to see if the addresses are valid using React and the APIs found in the HERE Developer Portal.
We're going to change it up a bit. Instead of using React, we're going to try to validate addresses using Vue.js, another very popular framework for web development.
