The enhanced way to start a Vite-powered Vue project

This repository is a fork of vuejs/create-vue that adds some new options like Tailwind CSS or Commitlint to the setup.

Screencast from terminal

Usage

To create a new Vue project using create-vue-enhanced, simply run the following command in your terminal:

npx create-vue-enhanced@latest

Important

(@latest or @legacy) MUST NOT be omitted, otherwise npm may resolve to a cached and outdated version of the package.

By default, the command runs in interactive mode with prompts. You can skip these prompts by providing feature flags as CLI arguments. To see all available feature flags and options:

npx create-vue-enhanced@latest -- --help

This will show you various feature flags (like --typescript, --router) and options (like --bare for creating a project with minimal boilerplate).

PowerShell users: You'll need to quote the double dashes: npm create vue enhanced@latest '--' --help

Creating Vue 2 Projects

If you need to support IE11, you can create a Vue 2 project with:

npx create-vue-enhanced@legacy

Difference from Vue CLI

  • Vite-Powered: Vue CLI is based on webpack, while create-vue is based on Vite. Vite supports most of the configured conventions found in Vue CLI projects out of the box, and provides a significantly better development experience due to its extremely fast startup and hot-module replacement speed. Learn more about why we recommend Vite over webpack here.

  • Scaffolding Tool: Unlike Vue CLI, create-vue itself is just a scaffolding tool. It creates a pre-configured project based on the features you choose, and delegates the rest to Vite. Projects scaffolded this way can directly leverage the Vite plugin ecosystem which is Rollup-compatible.
