Creating Vue application using Vue CLI

npm uninstall vue-cli -gUse the following commands to install the latest version of Vue CLI.
npm install -g @vue/cli
npm install -g @vue/cli-initCreate a new project using the command below.
vue create quickstart
cd quickstartInitiating a new project prompts us to choose the type of project to be used for the current application. Select the option Default (Vue 3) from the menu.
Adding Syncfusion Accordion package in the application
All the available Essential JS 2 packages are published in npmjs.com registry.
Install the Accordion component by using the below npm command.
npm install @syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations --saveAdding CSS reference for Syncfusion Vue Accordion component
Import the needed css styles for the Accordion component along with dependency styles in the <style> section of the src/App.vue file as follows.
<style>
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations/styles/material.css";
</style>Adding Syncfusion Vue Accordion in the application
You have completed all the necessary configurations needed for rendering the Syncfusion Vue component. Now, you are going to add the Accordion component using following steps.
- Import the Accordion component in the
<script>section of thesrc/App.vuefile.
<script>
import { AccordionComponent, AccordionItemDirective, AccordionItemsDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations";
</script>- Register the Accordion component along with the required child directives which are used in this example. Find the list of child directives and the tag names that can be used in the Accordion component in the following table.
| Directive Name | Tag Name |
|---|---|
AccordionComponent |
ejs-accordion |
AccordionItemsDirective |
e-accordionitems |
AccordionItemDirective |
e-accordionitem |
import { AccordionComponent, AccordionItemDirective, AccordionItemsDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations";
//Component registeration
export default {
name: "App",
components: {
"ejs-accordion": AccordionComponent,
"e-accordionitems": AccordionItemsDirective,
"e-accordionitem": AccordionItemDirective,
}
}In the above code snippet, you have registered Accordion and its child directives. AccordionItem Directive is used for defining the accordion item.
- Add the component definition in template section.
<template>
<ejs-accordion>
<e-accordionitems>
<e-accordionitem

content="Microsoft ASP.NET is a set of technologies in the Microsoft .NET Framework for building Web applications and XML Web services."
></e-accordionitem>
<e-accordionitem
header="ASP.NET MVC"
content="The Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern separates an application into three main components: the model, the view, and the controller."
></e-accordionitem>
<e-accordionitem

></e-accordionitem>
</e-accordionitems>
</ejs-accordion>
</template>- Summarizing the above steps, update the
src/App.vuefile with following code.
