v-for loop not returning data Vue.js


I'm new to Vue.js and following a tutorial. I'm trying out the v-for loop using the data in the json below. However nothing is being rendered in the div and therefore the page. I can't spot any syntax errors. Can anyone help?

<body>
        <div id="app" v-for="item in products">
            <img :src="item.img" :alt="item.img" style="width: 250px; height:250px">
            <h1>{{item.name}}</h1>
            <p>{{item.description}}</p>
            <p>${{item.price}}.00</p>
        </div>
    <script>
        var data = {
            products: [
                {
                    "name": "Bamboo Thermal Ski Coat",

        new Vue({

    </body>

Solution

  • try it this way, with a container div#app and data as a function, you can verify here: https://jsfiddle.net/boilerplate/vue

    <body>
            <div id="app">
              <div v-for="(item, i) in products" :key="i">
                <img :src="item.img" :alt="item.img" style="width: 250px; height:250px">
                <h1>{{item.name}}</h1>
                <p>{{item.description}}</p>
                <p>${{item.price}}.00</p>
              </div>
            </div>
        <script>
            var data = {
                products: [
