create-vue npm package node compatibility

The recommended way to start a Vite-powered Vue project

Screenshot from terminal

Usage

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

npm create vue@latest

Note

(@latest or @legacy) MUST NOT be omitted, otherwise npm may resolve to a cached and outdated version of the package.

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

npm create vue@legacy

Warning

Vue 2 Has Reached End of Life

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.
