Vue converts input[type=number] to a string value

Question

I\'m running into the problem, that Vue converts the value of an input field of type number into a string and I just can\'t figure out why. The guide I am following along do

Answer 1

Change the order object to :

const order = {
    stockId: this.stock.id,
    stockPrice: this.stock.price,
    quantity: +this.quantity
};

This will automatically parse the string to a number.

In general the data from HTML inputs are strings. The input type only checks if a valid string has been provided in the field.
