Guide to add Vue to your project
To use Vue in your project you need to install the vue
package and the @vitejs/plugin-vue
plugin.
bash
npm install vue
bash
npm install -D @vitejs/plugin-vue
Add the vite plugin to the vite.config.ts
file
js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [vue()]
})
Create a new vue component somewhere in the _src/js
folder
vue
// _src/js/vue/App.vue
<template>
<h1>Hello {{ name }}!</h1>
</template>
And import the component and initialize Vue in the main js entry file _src/js/app.js
file
js
import { createApp } from "vue";
import App from "./vue/App.vue";
createApp(App).mount("#app");
State management recommendation
We recommend not using Vuex for state management, but instead using the pinia library.
bash
npm install pinia
Initialize multiple Vue apps
WARNING
TODO: Explain how to initialize multiple Vue apps in the same page.
A possible good idea to follow is what Shopify Theme Labs does. They have a way of mounting multiple Vue apps that share the same vuex store, you can see more details on how this works in their main.js file. The idea is to provide here the snippets to make this work with Wonderplate.
