Hi @Adnan Erlansyah. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

In Nuxt 3, the easiest and recommended way to import components is to take advantage of the auto-import feature. Here's how it works:
1. Place your components in the
components/ directory of your Nuxt 3 project.
2. Nuxt will automatically import and register these components, making them available for use in your pages without explicit imports.
For example, if you have a component named AppHeader.vue in your components/ directory, you can use it directly in your page like this:
No import statement is needed. Nuxt handles this for you behind the scenes.
This auto-import feature is part of Nuxt 3's "minimal friction" approach, which aims to reduce boilerplate code and improve developer experience Docs > Migration > Auto Imports (https://nuxt.com/docs/migration/auto-imports).
If you need more control over component imports or want to import from specific directories, you can configure this behavior in your nuxt.config.ts file Docs > Guide > Directory-structure > components (https://nuxt.com/docs/guide/directory-structure/components).
Remember that while this method is the easiest, you can still manually import components if needed, especially when working with components from npm packages or external sources Docs > Guide > Directory-structure > components > Direct Imports (https://nuxt.com/docs/guide/directory-structure/components#direct-imports).

Why I can't import this component? although I've already made it and the path folder has already appropriate.
<template>
<div>
<Map />
</div>
</template>
<script setup>
import { Map } from "~/components/ui";
</script>
<style scoped>
</style>
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:

Based on the information you've provided, it seems you're having trouble importing a component named
Map from a subdirectory ui within your components folder. Let's analyze the possible reasons and provide a solution:
1. Auto-imports in Nuxt 3:
Nuxt 3 automatically imports components from the components/ directory, so you typically don't need to manually import them Docs > Guide > Directory-structure > components (https://nuxt.com/docs/guide/directory-structure/components). This means you should be able to use the <Map /> component directly in your template without an import statement.
2. Nested components:
If your Map component is inside a subdirectory (components/ui/Map.vue), Nuxt will automatically register it with a name that includes the subdirectory. In this case, it would likely be <UiMap /> instead of just <Map /> Docs > Guide > Directory-structure > components (https://nuxt.com/docs/guide/directory-structure/components#component-names).
3. Manual imports:
If you do need to manually import the component, the correct syntax would be:
Note that we're importing the default export, not using named imports.
4. Component file name:
Ensure that your component file is named Map.vue (with a capital 'M') to match the component name you're trying to use.
5. Configuration check:
If you've modified the default auto-import behavior, check your nuxt.config.ts file to ensure you haven't disabled component auto-imports Docs > Guide > Concepts > Auto-imports > Auto-imported Components (https://nuxt.com/docs/guide/concepts/auto-imports#auto-imported-components).
Given these points, here's what I suggest:
1. Try using the component as <UiMap /> in your template without any import statement.
2. If that doesn't work, ensure your component file is correctly named and located at components/ui/Map.vue.
3. If you still need to manually import, use the syntax I provided above.
If none of these solutions work, there might be an issue with your Nuxt configuration or the component itself. In that case, you might need to check for any error messages in your console or build logs for more specific information about the import failure.
