Hi @Oyl. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- I'll help you troubleshoot your Nuxt UI setup with Vue. Based on the code snippets you've shared, there are a few things we should check to ensure Nuxt UI works properly in your Vue application. Common Setup Issues Let's go through the complete setup process to make sure nothing is missing: 1. Vite Configuration: Make sure you've added the Nuxt UI Vite plugin correctly:

// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import ui from '@nuxt/ui/vite'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    vue(),
    ui()
  ]
})

// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import ui from '@nuxt/ui/vite'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    vue(),
    ui()
  ]
})

2. CSS Import: Ensure you've properly imported Tailwind CSS and Nuxt UI in your CSS file:

/* assets/main.css */
@import "tailwindcss" theme(static);
@import "@nuxt/ui";

/* assets/main.css */
@import "tailwindcss" theme(static);
@import "@nuxt/ui";

The theme(static) is required since Tailwind CSS v4.0.8 introduced a breaking change that only exposes used CSS variables. 3. App Component Wrapper: You've correctly wrapped your app with the UApp component, which is required for components like Toast and Tooltip to work properly. 4. Router Setup: Make sure your router is properly configured with createWebHistory(). Additional Checks - If you're using pnpm, ensure you've set shamefully-hoist=true in your .npmrc file or installed tailwindcss, vue-router, and @unhead/vue in your project's root directory. - Check if the auto-generated type declaration files (auto-imports.d.ts and components.d.ts) are being created in your project root. - Verify that all dependencies are properly installed:

  npm install @nuxt/ui tailwindcss vue-router @unhead/vue

  npm install @nuxt/ui tailwindcss vue-router @unhead/vue

Using the Vue Starter Template If you continue to have issues, consider using the official Vue starter template which has Nuxt UI pre-configured:

npx nuxi init -t github:nuxtlabs/nuxt-ui-vue-starter my-app

npx nuxi init -t github:nuxtlabs/nuxt-ui-vue-starter my-app

This will create a new project with Nuxt UI already set up correctly, which you can use as a reference or starting point. Installation Guide for Vue provides the complete setup instructions that should help resolve your issue. Without seeing the screenshot you mentioned or knowing the specific error, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact issue. If the button isn't rendering correctly, it could be related to CSS not being properly loaded or the component not being registered correctly. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
