# PrimeVue
PrimeVue is a rich set of open source UI Components for Vue. See [PrimeVue homepage](https://primevue.org/) for live showcase and documentation.
## Download
PrimeVue is available at [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/primevue).
```bash
# Using npm
npm install primevue
# Using yarn
yarn add primevue
# Using pnpm
pnpm add primevue
```
## Plugin
PrimeVue plugin is required to be installed as an application plugin to set up the default [configuration](https://primevue.org/configuration). The plugin is lightweight, only sets up the configuration object without affecting your application. PrimeVue has two styling modes; Styled and Unstyled. If you are just getting started, we suggest to using the styled mode.
```javascript
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import PrimeVue from 'primevue/config';
const app = createApp(App);
app.use(PrimeVue);
```
## Theming
PrimeVue has two theming has modes; styled or unstyled.
**Styled Mode**
Styled mode provides pre-skinned components, default theme is Aura with emerald as the primary color.
```javascript
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import PrimeVueStyled from 'primevue/config';
const app = createApp(App);
app.use(PrimeVueStyled);
```
**Unstyled Mode**
In unstyled mode, the components do not include any CSS so you'd need to style the components on your end. If you are using Tailwind CSS, visit the [Tailwind Presets](https://tailwind.primevue.org) project to get you started with styling the components with Tailwind utility classes.
```javascript
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import PrimeVueUnstyled from 'primevue/config';
const app = createApp(App);
app.use(PrimeVueUnstyled);
```
## Usage
Each component can be imported individually so that you only bundle what you use. Import path is available in the documentation of the corresponding component.
```javascript
import Button from 'primevue/button';
const app = createApp(App);
app.component('Button', Button);
```
## Prop Cases
Component prop names are described as camel case throughout the documentation however kebab-case is also fully supported. Events on the other hand should always be kebab-case.
```vue
