vike-vue

Version history: CHANGELOG.md
Examples: vike.dev/new and examples/
Source code: GitHub > vikejs/vike-vue

The Vike extension vike-vue is a full-fledged Vue integration, with a high-level DX like a conventional framework such as Nuxt.

The documentation for using vike-vue can be found throughout this website (vike.dev).

The guides, such as Guides > Data Fetching, assume you're using Vike with vike-react, vike-vue, or vike-solid. If you aren't then see the sections Without vike-{react,vue,solid} such as API > useData() > Without vike-{react,vue,solid}.

You can integrate Vue yourself instead of using vike-vue, see Vue > Custom integration.

Scaffold new vike-vue app

Use vike.dev/new for creating a new vike-vue app.

Add vike-vue to existing Vike app

To add vike-vue to an existing Vike app: install the vike-vue npm package (e.g. $ npm install vike-vue) then extend your existing +config.js file (or create one) with vike-vue:

// /pages/+config.js   import vikeVue from 'vike-vue/config'   export default {  // ...  extends: [vikeVue]  }
// /pages/+config.ts   import type { Config } from 'vike/types' import vikeVue from 'vike-vue/config'   export default {  // ...  extends: [vikeVue] } satisfies Config

You can then use new settings introduced by vike-vue:

// /pages/+config.js   import vikeVue from 'vike-vue/config'   export default {  // ...    // Setting to toggle SSR  ssr: false,     extends: [vikeVue] }
// /pages/+config.ts   import type { Config } from 'vike/types' import vikeVue from 'vike-vue/config'   export default {  // ...    // Setting to toggle SSR  ssr: false,    extends: [vikeVue] } satisfies Config

Under the hood

The vike-vue extension is only around 1k lines of code. It's simple, readable, and highly polished.

Reading the source code of vike-vue is very much an option for understanding, debugging, and/or contributing.

Contributions are welcome! See CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

What vike-vue does is essentially this:
