Vuetify Clear text field using ref

In this post, we will explore how to clear text fields in a Vuetify application using refs. Vuetify is a popular Material Design component framework for Vue.js, which provides a wide range of UI components, including text fields. Using refs, we can easily access and manipulate these components, enabling us to clear their values with a single click. In this example, we will create a simple Vuetify application with text fields for first name, last name, email, and phone number, along with a "Clear Fields" button to demonstrate this functionality.
