Nuxt UI v4

Component library for Vue 3 and Nuxt 4+ built on Reka UI (headless) + Tailwind CSS v4 + Tailwind Variants.

Current stable version: v4.3.0 (December 2025)

When to Use

Installing/configuring @nuxt/ui
Using UI components (Button, Card, Table, Form, etc.)
Customizing theme (colors, variants, CSS variables)
Building forms with validation
Using overlays (Modal, Toast, CommandPalette)
Working with composables (useToast, useOverlay)

For Vue component patterns: use vue skill For Nuxt routing/server: use nuxt skill

Available Guidance

File	Topics
references/installation.md	Nuxt/Vue setup, pnpm gotchas, UApp wrapper, module options, prefix, tree-shaking
references/theming.md	Semantic colors, CSS variables, app.config.ts, Tailwind Variants
references/components.md	Component index by category (125+ components)
*components/.md**	Per-component details (button.md, modal.md, etc.)
references/forms.md	Form components, validation (Zod/Valibot), useFormField
references/overlays.md	Toast, Modal, Slideover, Drawer, CommandPalette
references/composables.md	useToast, useOverlay, defineShortcuts, useScrollspy

Usage Pattern

Load based on context:

Installing Nuxt UI? → references/installation.md
Customizing theme? → references/theming.md
Component index → references/components.md
Specific component → components/button.md, components/modal.md, etc.
Building forms? → references/forms.md
Using overlays? → references/overlays.md
Using composables? → references/composables.md

DO NOT read all files at once. Load based on context.

Key Concepts

Concept	Description
UApp	Required wrapper component for Toast, Tooltip, overlays
Tailwind Variants	Type-safe styling with slots, variants, compoundVariants
Semantic Colors	primary, secondary, success, error, warning, info, neutral
Reka UI	Headless component primitives (accessibility built-in)

For headless component primitives (API details, accessibility patterns, asChild): read the reka-ui skill

Quick Reference

// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxt/ui'],
  css: ['~/assets/css/main.css']
})

/* assets/css/main.css */
@import 'tailwindcss';
@import '@nuxt/ui';

<!-- app.vue - UApp wrapper required -->
<template>
  <UApp>
    <NuxtPage />
  </UApp>
</template>
