# 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).
````
// with npm
npm install primevue
// with yarn
yarn add primevue
````
## Plugin
PrimeVue plugin is required to be installed with the **use** function to set up the default [configuration](https://primevue.org/theming).
```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 is based on pre-skinned components with opinionated themes like Material, Bootstrap or PrimeOne themes. Theme is the required css file to be imported, visit the [Themes](https://primevue.org/theming) section for the complete list of available themes to choose from.
```javascript
// theme
import 'primevue/resources/themes/lara-light-blue/theme.css';
```
Each PrimeVue theme has its own font family so it is suggested to apply it to your application for a unified look.
```
body {
font-family: var(--font-family);
}
```
**Unstyled Mode**
Unstyled mode is disabled by default for all components. Using the PrimeVue plugin during installation, set `unstyled` as true to enable it globally. Visit the [Unstyled mode](https://primevue.org/unstyled) documentation for more information and examples.
```javascript
import { createApp } from "vue";
import PrimeVue from "primevue/config";
const app = createApp(App);
app.use(PrimeVue, { unstyled: true });
```
## 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 kebap-case is also fully supported. Events on the other hand should always be kebap-case.
```vue
```
## Nuxt Integration
PrimeVue can easily be used with Nuxt 3 using a custom plugin.
**nuxt.config.js**
Open the nuxt configuration file and add the css dependencies.
```javascript
export default defineNuxtConfig({
css: [
"primevue/resources/themes/lara-light-blue/theme.css"
],
build: {
transpile: ["primevue"]
}
})
```
**primevue.js**
Create a file like **primevue.js** under the plugins directory for the configuration.
```javascript
import { defineNuxtPlugin } from "#app";
import PrimeVue from "primevue/config";
import Button from "primevue/button";
export default defineNuxtPlugin((nuxtApp) => {
nuxtApp.vueApp.use(PrimeVue, {ripple: true});
nuxtApp.vueApp.component('Button', Button);
//other components that you need
});
```
