V3LT - Vue 3 Project Template

I got tired of setting up Vue 3 projects from scratch every time — so I made this starter. If you're also "that person," this might save you a few minutes (or hours).

🚀 Getting Started

Navigate to the folder where you want to create your project, then run:

npx degit dev-murphy/v3lt <my-project>

Replace <my-project> with your desired project name.

Remove the .git folder ...

rm -fr .git

And re-initialize the git repo. (Optional)

git init
git add .
git commit -m "feat: initial commit"
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main

Once it's cloned, feel free to customize and build from there. Make it your own — and go beyond!

⚙️ What's Included

This template includes tools and packages I almost always use in Vue 3 projects:

💡 Note:
This project uses the Vite Vue template, PNPM as the package manager, and TypeScript by default. You can easily switch to your preferred package manager if needed.

Core Tools & Features

• 🌿 Tailwind CSS – Utility-first CSS framework
• 🧠 Pinia – State management
• 🧭 Vue Router + unplugin-vue-router – File-based routing
• 🪄 unplugin-auto-import – Auto-import common APIs (like Vue composition utilities)
• 🧩 unplugin-vue-components – Auto-import Vue components
