Vue 3 Development

Vendored from onmax/nuxt-skills (MIT). See .claude/skills/NOTICE.md.

Reference for Vue 3 Composition API patterns, component architecture, and testing practices.

Current stable: Vue 3.5+ with enhanced reactivity performance (-56% memory, 10x faster array tracking), new SSR features, and improved developer experience.

This project

The crowdfunding frontend uses:

• UI: PrimeVue v4 (theme: none) + Tailwind + CSS variables — do not assume nuxt-ui is installed
• State: Pinia (app state) + Vue Query / TanStack (server state)
• HTTP: $fetch/ofetch; Forms: Vuelidate
• Auth: OAuth2 PKCE + HTTP-only cookies via server/api/auth/
• Header: @linuxfoundation/lfx-ui-core web component (client-only)

See docs/rewrite/04-target-architecture.md for the full target stack.

Overview

Progressive reference system for Vue 3 projects. Load only files relevant to current task to minimize context usage (~250 tokens base, 500-1500 per sub-file).

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• Writing .vue components
• Creating composables (use* functions)
• Building client-side utilities
• Testing Vue components/composables

Use nuxt skill instead for:

• Server routes, API endpoints
• File-based routing, middleware
• Nuxt-specific patterns

For VueUse composables: use vueuse skill

Quick Reference

Working on...	Load file
.vue in components/	references/components.md
File in composables/	references/composables.md
File in utils/	references/utils-client.md
.spec.ts or .test.ts	references/testing.md
TypeScript patterns	references/typescript.md
Vue Router typing	references/router.md
Reactivity (ref, watch)	references/reactivity.md
Custom directives	references/directives.md
Provide/inject	references/provide-inject.md
Edge cases, vue-tsc	references/gotchas.md

Loading Files

Consider loading these reference files based on your task:

• references/components.md - if working in components/ or writing .vue files
• references/composables.md - if creating composables (use* functions)
• references/utils-client.md - if working in utils/ or writing client utilities
• references/testing.md - if writing .spec.ts or .test.ts files
• references/typescript.md - if working with Vue TypeScript patterns or generics
• references/router.md - if working with Vue Router or route typing
• references/reactivity.md - if using ref, reactive, computed, watch, or watchEffect
• references/directives.md - if creating or using custom directives
• references/provide-inject.md - if using provide/inject patterns
• references/gotchas.md - if debugging edge cases or hydration issues

DO NOT load all files at once. Load only what's relevant to your current task.

Quick Start

<template>
  <button @click="emit('update', count + 1)">
    Count: {{ count }}
  </button>
</template>

<script setup lang="ts">
const { count = 0 } = defineProps<{ count?: number }>()
const emit = defineEmits<{ update: [value: number] }>()
</script>
