Advice: 70 percent theory based so just revise all concepts and communicate well as he gives you time to explain everything you know in detail and then ask next question from your explanation so be mindful about the terms you use, don't act smart by using heavy terms you don't know. If you can't able to give any answer just tell directly he will change question but don't stretch any topic unneccesary, just take your time and be confident

    ];Enhance the existing Vue application by adding user navigation with Vue Router. Display the list of users using v-for. When a user is clicked, navigate to /users/:id. Create a component that reads the id from the URL and displays the selected user's name and score. Display the score in red if it is below 50, otherwise in green. If the entered user ID does not exist, display a "User not found" message. this is what he asked i got from recording i was not able to do i had already panicked because of lag in my laptop and chrome not responding this question made it worse. prepare well guys.
