Vue CLI is a command-line interface tool for scaffolding Vue.js projects, managing dependencies, and building production-ready applications.

Example:

npm install -g @vue/cli

Example:

vue create my-vue-project-name

Done. Now run:

  cd my-vue-first-project
  npm install
  npm run dev

It provides a standardized project structure and various built-in features.

Install Vue CLI globally (if not already installed):

Example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>Page Title of Vue App</title>

  <!-- Include Vue.js from CDN -->
  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue@2"></script>

</head>
<body>

  <div id="app">
    <!-- Your Vue app code here -->
  </div>

</body>
</html>

Create a new Vue project:

Follow the prompts to choose the project features and configurations.

Example:

npm install vue@2 or yarn add vue@2

Example:

import Vue from 'vue';

// Your Vue app code here

Once the project is created, navigate to its directory and start development.

Using Vue CDN (for quick prototypes and small projects):

If you're working on a small project or just want to quickly prototype something, we can include Vue.js directly in your HTML file using a CDN (Content Delivery Network).

Using npm/yarn (for manual setup or integration with existing projects):

we can integrate Vue into an existing project, we can install Vue.js via npm or yarn.

Install Vue.js using npm:

Once installed, we can import Vue.js into our JavaScript file and start using it.

Note:

Vue CLI is recommended for larger projects as it provides a more structured development environment and additional features such as Vue Router, Vuex, and a plugin system.
When using Vue CLI, you have the option to choose between Vue 2 and Vue 3 when creating a new project. The above commands use Vue 2 (@vue/cli).
If starting a new project, consider using Vue 3, which offers improved performance and features. We can install Vue 3 with Vue CLI by running "vue create my-vue-project-name" and selecting Vue 3 when prompted.
