Getting Started

Vue Macros is a library that implements proposals or ideas that have not been officially implemented by Vue. That means it will explore and extend more features and syntax sugar to Vue.

We assume you are already familiar with the basic usages of Vue before you continue.

Requirements

• Node.js 16.14.0 or higher.
• Vue >= 2.7 or Vue >= 3.0.
  • Some features need Vue >= 3.2.25.
• VSCode installed the Vue Language Features (Volar) latest extension.
  • ❌ WebStorm is not supported.

Creating a Vue Macros Project

Installation

npm

npm i -g @vue-macros/cli

yarn

yarn global add @vue-macros/cli

pnpm

pnpm add -g @vue-macros/cli

This command will install @vue-macros/cli, the official Vue Macros scaffolding tool.

Initialization

npm

npm create vite@latest my-vue-macros -- --template vue-ts
cd my-vue-macros
vue-macros init

yarn

yarn create vite my-vue-macros --template vue-ts
cd my-vue-macros
vue-macros init

pnpm

pnpm create vite my-vue-macros --template vue-ts
cd my-vue-macros

You will be presented with prompts for several optional experimental features.
