Develop – Carbon Design System

The library provides front-end developers & engineers a collection of reusable Vue components to build websites and user interfaces. Adopting the library enables developers to use consistent markup, styles, and behavior in prototype and production work.

The Vue library is maintained by members of the Carbon community. For support, contact the Carbon Vue team.

Carbon Components Vue

Try Vue components with CodeSandbox

Getting started

Assuming we’re starting with a new Vue CLI project:

vue create --default my-project
cd my-project

Using Yarn

yarn add @carbon/vue

Or npm

npm install @carbon/vue

In src/main.js, after “import Vue from ‘vue’”, add the following to include the carbon styles and components.

import 'carbon-components/css/carbon-components.css';
import CarbonComponentsVue from '@carbon/vue/src/index';
Vue.use(CarbonComponentsVue);

Replace the contents of src/components/HelloWorld.vue with the following

<template>
  <div class="sample">
    <h1>Example use of @carbon/vue</h1>
    <cv-text-input
      label="Who are you?"
      v-model="yourName"
      placeholder="your name"
    />
    <cv-button @click="onClick">Hello {{yourName}}</cv-button>

That’s it! Now start the server and start building.

Using Yarn

yarn serve

Or npm

npm serve

Note: This isn’t the only way to bootstrap a carbon-components-vue application, but the combination of Vue CLI and the carbon-components scss is our recommended setup.
