+
+# `$attrs` includes `class` & `style` <MigrationBadges :badges="$frontmatter.badges" />
+
+## Overview
+
+`$attrs` now contains _all_ attributes passed to a component, including `class` and `style`.
+
+## 2.x Behavior
+
+`class` and `style` attributes get some special handling in the Vue 2 virtual DOM implementation. For that reason, they are _not_ included in `$attrs`, while all other attributes are.
+
+A side effect of this manifests when using `inheritAttrs: false`:
+
+- Attributes in `$attrs` are no longer automatically added to the root element, leaving it to the developer to decide where to add them.
+- But `class` and `style`, not being part of `$attrs`, will still be applied to the component's root element:
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <label>
+    <input type="text" v-bind="$attrs" />
+  </label>
+</template>
+<script>
+export default {
+  inheritAttrs: false
+}
+</script>
+```
+
+when used like this:
+
+```html
+<my-component id="my-id" class="my-class"></my-component>
+```
+
+...will generate this HTML:
+
+```html
+<label class="my-class">
+  <input type="text" id="my-id" />
+</label>
+```
+
+## 3.x Behavior
+
+`$attrs` contains _all_ attributes, which makes it easier to apply all of them to a different element. The example from above now generates the following HTML:
+
+```html
+<label>
+  <input type="text" id="my-id" class="my-class" />
+</label>
+```
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+In components that use `inheritAttrs: false`, make sure that styling still works as intended. If you previously relied on the special behavior of `class` and `style`, some visuals might be broken as these attributes might now be applied to another element.

+
+# `emits` Option <MigrationBadges :badges="$frontmatter.badges" />
+
+## Overview
+
+Vue 3 now offers an `emits` option similar to the existing `props` option. This option can be used to define the events that a component can emit to its parent.
+
+## 2.x Behavior
+
+In Vue 2, you can define the props that a component received, but you can't declare which events it can emit:
+
+```html
+<template>
+  <div>
+    <p>{{ text }}</p>
+    <button v-on:click="$emit('accepted')">OK</button>
+  </div>
+</template>
+<script>
+  export default {
+    props: ['text']
+  }
+</script>
+```
+
+## 3.x Behavior
+
+Similar to props, the events that the component emits can now be defined with the `emits` option.
+
+```html
+<template>
+  <p>{{ text }}</p>
+  <button v-on:click="$emit('accepted')">OK</button>
+</template>
+<script>
+  export default {
+    props: ['text'],
+    emits: ['accepted']
+  }
+</script>
+```
+
+The option also accepts an object notation, which allows the developer to define validators for the arguments that are passed with the emitted event, similar to validators in props definitions.
+
+For more information on this, please read the [API documentation for this feature](../../api/options-data.md#emits).
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+It is highly recommended that you document all of the emitted events by your each of components this way because of the [removal of the `.native` modifier](./v-on-native-modifier-removed.md).
+
+All events not defined with `emits` are now added as DOM event listeners to the component's root node (unless `inheritAttrs: false` has been set).
+
+### Example
+
+For components that re-emit native events to their parent, this would now lead to two events being fired:
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <p>{{ text }}</p>
+  <button v-on:click="$emit('click', $event)">OK</button>
+</template>
+<script>
+export default {
+  props: ['text'],
+  emits: [] // without declared event
+}
+</script>
+```
+
+When a parent listens for the `click` event on the component:
+
+```html
+<my-button v-on:click="handleClick"></my-button>
+```
+
+it would now be triggered _twice_:
+
+- Once from `$emit()`
+- Once from a native event listener applied to the root element
+
+Here you have two options:
+
+1. Properly declare the `click` event. This is useful if you actually do add some logic to that event handler in `<my-button>`
+2. Remove the re-emitting of the event, since the parent can now listen for the native event easily, without adding `.native`. Suitable when you really only re-emit the event anyway.

+# `$listeners` removed <MigrationBadges :badges="$frontmatter.badges" />
+
+## Overview
+
+The `$listeners` object has been removed in Vue 3. Event listeners are now part of `$attrs`:
+
+```javascript
+{
+  text: 'this is an attribute',
+  onClose: () => console.log('close Event triggered')
+}
+```
+
+## 2.x Syntax
+
+In Vue 2, you can access attributes passed to your components with `this.$attrs`, and event listeners with `this.$listeners`.
+In combination with `inheritAttrs: false`, they allow the developer to apply these attributes and listeners to some other element instead of the root element:
+
+```html
+<template>
+  <label>
+    <input type="text" v-bind="$attrs" v-on="$listeners" />
+  </label>
+</template>
+<script>
+  export default {
+    inheritAttrs: false
+  }
+</script>
+```
+
+## 3.x Syntax
+
+In Vue 3's virtual DOM, event listeners are now just attributes, prefixed with `on`, and as such are part of the `$attrs` object, so `$listeners` has been removed.
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <label>
+    <input type="text" v-bind="$attrs" />
+  </label>
+</template>
+<script>
+export default {
+  inheritAttrs: false
+}
+</script>
+```
+
+If this component received an `id` attribute and a `v-on:close` listener, the `$attrs` object will now look like this:
+
+```javascript
+{
+  id: 'my-input',
+  onClose: () => console.log('close Event triggered')
+}
+```
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+Remove all usages of `$listeners`.

+# `v-on.native` modifier removed <MigrationBadges :badges="$frontmatter.badges" />
+
+## Overview
+
+The `.native` modifier for `v-on` has been removed.
+
+## 2.x Syntax
+
+Event listeners passed to a component with `v-on` are by default only triggered by emitting an event with `this.$emit`. To add a native DOM listener to the child component's root element instead, the `.native` modifier can be used:
+
+```html
+<my-component
+  v-on:close="handleComponentEvent"
+  v-on:click.native="handleNativeClickEvent"
+/>
+```
+
+## 3.x Syntax
+
+The `.native` modifier for `v-on` has been removed. At the same time, the [new `emits` option](./emits-option.md) allows the child to define which events it does indeed emit.
+
+Consequently, Vue will now add all event listeners that are _not_ defined as component-emitted events in the child as native event listeners to the child's root element (unless `inheritAttrs: false` has been set in the child's options).
+
+```html
+<my-component
+  v-on:close="handleComponentEvent"
+  v-on:click="handleNativeClickEvent"
+/>
+```
+
+`MyComponent.vue`
+
+```html
+<script>
+  export default {
+    emits: ['close']
+  }
+</script>
+```
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+- remove all instances of the `.native` modifier.
+- ensure that all your components document their events with the `emits` option.
