Vue has three common approaches to styling apps:</p> <ul> <li>External CSS files.</li> <li>Global styles in Single File Components (<code>.vue</code> files).</li> <li>Component-scoped styles in Single File Components.</li> </ul> <p>To help familiarize you with each one, we'll use a combination of all three to give our app a nicer look and feel.</p></div></section><section aria-labelledby="styling_with_external_css_files"><h2 id="styling_with_external_css_files"><a href="#styling_with_external_css_files">Styling with external CSS files</a></h2><div class="section-content"><p>You can include external CSS files and apply them globally to your app. Let's look at how this is done.</p> <p>To start with, create a file called <code>reset.css</code> in the <code>src/assets</code> directory. Files in this folder get processed by webpack. This means we can use CSS pre-processors (like SCSS) or post-processors (like PostCSS).</p> <p>While this tutorial will not be using such tools, it's good to know that when including such code in the assets folder it will be processed automatically.</p> <p>Add the following contents to the <code>reset.css</code> file:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">css</span></div><pre class="brush: css notranslate"><code>/*reset.css*/ /* RESETS */ *, *::before, *::after { box-sizing: border-box; } *:focus { outline: 3px dashed #228bec; } html { font: 62.5% / 1.15 sans-serif; } h1, h2 { margin-bottom: 0; } ul { list-style: none; padding: 0; } button { border: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: auto; overflow: visible; background: transparent; color: inherit; font: inherit; line-height: normal; -webkit-font-smoothing: inherit; -moz-osx-font-smoothing: inherit; appearance: none; } button::-moz-focus-inner { border: 0; } button, input, optgroup, select, textarea { font-family: inherit; font-size: 100%; line-height: 1.15; margin: 0; } button, input { /* 1 */ overflow: visible; } input[type="text"] { border-radius: 0; } body { width: 100%; max-width: 68rem; margin: 0 auto; font: 1.6rem/1.25 "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-color: #f5f5f5; color: #4d4d4d; -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; } @media screen and (min-width: 620px) { body { font-size: 1.9rem; line-height: 1.31579; } } /*END RESETS*/ </code></pre></div> <p>Next, in your <code>src/main.js</code> file, import the <code>reset.css</code> file like so:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">js</span></div><pre class="brush: js notranslate"><code>import "./assets/reset.css"; </code></pre></div> <p>This will cause the file to get picked up during the build step and automatically added to our site.</p> <p>The reset styles should be applied to the app now. The images below show the look of the app before and after the reset is applied.</p> <p>Before:</p> <p><img src="/en-US/docs/Learn_web_development/Core/Frameworks_libraries/Vue_styling/todo-app-unstyled.png" alt="the todo app with partial styling added; the app is now in a card, but some of the internal features still need styling" width="1600" height="763" loading="lazy"></p> <p>After:</p> <p><img src="/en-US/docs/Learn_web_development/Core/Frameworks_libraries/Vue_styling/todo-app-reset-styles.png" alt="the todo app with partial styling added; the app is now in a card, but some of the internal features still need styling" width="1811" height="929" loading="lazy"></p> <p>Noticeable changes include the removal of the list bullets, background color changes, and changes to the base button and input styles.</p></div></section><section aria-labelledby="adding_global_styles_to_single_file_components"><h2 id="adding_global_styles_to_single_file_components"><a href="#adding_global_styles_to_single_file_components">Adding global styles to Single File Components</a></h2><div class="section-content"><p>Now that we've reset our CSS to be uniform across browsers, we need to customize the styles a bit more. There are some styles that we want to apply across components in our app. While adding these files directly to the <code>reset.css</code> stylesheet would work, we'll instead add them to the <code><style></code> tags in <code>App.vue</code> to demonstrate how this can be used.</p> <p>There are already some styles present in the file. Let's remove those and replace them with the styles below. These styles do a few things — adding some styling to buttons and inputs, and customizing the <code>#app</code> element and its children.</p> <p>Update your <code>App.vue</code> file's <code><style></code> element so it looks like so:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code><style> /* Global styles */ .btn { padding: 0.8rem 1rem 0.7rem; border: 0.2rem solid #4d4d4d; cursor: pointer; text-transform: capitalize; } .btn__danger { color: #fff; background-color: #ca3c3c; border-color: #bd2130; } .btn__filter { border-color: lightgrey; } .btn__danger:focus { outline-color: #c82333; } .btn__primary { color: #fff; background-color: #000; } .btn-group { display: flex; justify-content: space-between; } .btn-group > * { flex: 1 1 auto; } .btn-group > * + * { margin-left: 0.8rem; } .label-wrapper { margin: 0; flex: 0 0 100%; text-align: center; } [class*="__lg"] { display: inline-block; width: 100%; font-size: 1.9rem; } [class*="__lg"]:not(:last-child) { margin-bottom: 1rem; } @media screen and (min-width: 620px) { [class*="__lg"] { font-size: 2.4rem; } } .visually-hidden { position: absolute; height: 1px; width: 1px; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(1px 1px 1px 1px); clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px); clip-path: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px); white-space: nowrap; } [class*="stack"] > * { margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; } .stack-small > * + * { margin-top: 1.25rem; } .stack-large > * + * { margin-top: 2.5rem; } @media screen and (min-width: 550px) { .stack-small > * + * { margin-top: 1.4rem; } .stack-large > * + * { margin-top: 2.8rem; } } /* End global styles */ #app { background: #fff; margin: 2rem 0 4rem 0; padding: 1rem; padding-top: 0; position: relative; box-shadow: 0 2px 4px 0 rgb(0 0 0 / 20%), 0 2.5rem 5rem 0 rgb(0 0 0 / 10%); } @media screen and (min-width: 550px) { #app { padding: 4rem; } } #app > * { max-width: 50rem; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } #app > form { max-width: 100%; } #app h1 { display: block; min-width: 100%; width: 100%; text-align: center; margin: 0; margin-bottom: 1rem; } </style> </code></pre></div> <p>If you check the app, you'll see that our todo list is now in a card, and we have some better formatting of our to-do items. Now we can go through and begin editing our components to use some of these styles.</p> <p><img src="/en-US/docs/Learn_web_development/Core/Frameworks_libraries/Vue_styling/todo-app-partial-styles.png" alt="the todo app with partial styling added; the app is now in a card, but some of the internal features still need styling" width="1398" height="685" loading="lazy"></p></div></section><section aria-labelledby="adding_css_classes_in_vue"><h3 id="adding_css_classes_in_vue"><a href="#adding_css_classes_in_vue">Adding CSS classes in Vue</a></h3><div class="section-content"><p>We should apply the button CSS classes to the <code><button></code> in our <code>ToDoForm</code> component. Since Vue templates are valid HTML, this is done in the same way to how you might do it in plain HTML — by adding a <code>class=""</code> attribute to the element.</p> <p>Add <code>class="btn btn__primary btn__lg"</code> to your form's <code><button></code> element:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code><button type="submit" class="btn btn__primary btn__lg">Add</button> </code></pre></div> <p>While we're here, there's one more semantic and styling change we can make. Since our form denotes a specific section of our page, it could benefit from an <code><h2></code> element. The label, however, already denotes the purpose of the form. To avoid repeating ourselves, let's wrap our label in an <code><h2></code>. There are a few other global CSS styles which we can add as well. We'll also add the <code>input__lg</code> class to our <code><input></code> element.</p> <p>Update your <code>ToDoForm</code> template so that it looks like this:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code><template> <form @submit.prevent="onSubmit"> <h2 class="label-wrapper"> <label for="new-todo-input" class="label__lg"> What needs to be done? </label> </h2> <input type="text" id="new-todo-input" name="new-todo" autocomplete="off" v-model.lazy.trim="label" class="input__lg" /> <button type="submit" class="btn btn__primary btn__lg">Add</button> </form> </template> </code></pre></div> <p>Let's also add the <code>stack-large</code> class to the <code><ul></code> tag in our <code>App.vue</code> file. This will help improve the spacing of our to-do items a bit.</p> <p>Update it as follows:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code><ul aria-labelledby="list-summary" class="stack-large"> … </ul> </code></pre></div></div></section><section aria-labelledby="adding_scoped_styles"><h2 id="adding_scoped_styles"><a href="#adding_scoped_styles">Adding scoped styles</a></h2><div class="section-content"><p>The last component we want to style is our <code>ToDoItem</code> component. To keep the style definitions close to the component we can add a <code><style></code> element inside it. However, if these styles alter things outside of this component, it could be challenging to track down the styles responsible, and fix the problem. This is where the <code>scoped</code> attribute can be useful — this attaches a unique HTML <code>data</code> attribute selector to all of your styles, preventing them from colliding globally.</p> <p>To use the <code>scoped</code> modifier, create a <code><style></code> element inside <code>ToDoItem.vue</code>, at the bottom of the file, and give it a <code>scoped</code> attribute:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code><style scoped> /* … */ </style> </code></pre></div> <p>Next, copy the following CSS into the newly created <code><style></code> element:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">css</span></div><pre class="brush: css notranslate"><code>.custom-checkbox > .checkbox-label { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale; font-weight: 400; font-size: 16px; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.25; color: #0b0c0c; display: block; margin-bottom: 5px; } .custom-checkbox > .checkbox { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale; font-weight: 400; font-size: 16px; font-size: 1rem; line-height: 1.25; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; height: 40px; height: 2.5rem; margin-top: 0; padding: 5px; border: 2px solid #0b0c0c; border-radius: 0; appearance: none; } .custom-checkbox > input:focus { outline: 3px dashed #fd0; outline-offset: 0; box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 2px; } .custom-checkbox { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; font-weight: 400; font-size: 1.6rem; line-height: 1.25; display: block; position: relative; min-height: 40px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 40px; clear: left; } .custom-checkbox > input[type="checkbox"] { -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; cursor: pointer; position: absolute; z-index: 1; top: -2px; left: -2px; width: 44px; height: 44px; margin: 0; opacity: 0; } .custom-checkbox > .checkbox-label { font-size: inherit; font-family: inherit; line-height: inherit; display: inline-block; margin-bottom: 0; padding: 8px 15px 5px; cursor: pointer; touch-action: manipulation; } .custom-checkbox > label::before { content: ""; box-sizing: border-box; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 40px; height: 40px; border: 2px solid currentcolor; background: transparent; } .custom-checkbox > input[type="checkbox"]:focus + label::before { border-width: 4px; outline: 3px dashed #228bec; } .custom-checkbox > label::after { box-sizing: content-box; content: ""; position: absolute; top: 11px; left: 9px; width: 18px; height: 7px; transform: rotate(-45deg); border: solid; border-width: 0 0 5px 5px; border-top-color: transparent; opacity: 0; background: transparent; } .custom-checkbox > input[type="checkbox"]:checked + label::after { opacity: 1; } @media only screen and (min-width: 40rem) { label, input, .custom-checkbox { font-size: 19px; font-size: 1.9rem; line-height: 1.31579; } } </code></pre></div> <p>Now we need to add some CSS classes to our template to connect the styles.</p> <p>To the root <code><div></code>, add a <code>custom-checkbox</code> class. To the <code><input></code>, add a <code>checkbox</code> class. Last of all, to the <code><label></code> add a <code>checkbox-label</code> class.

This is where the <code>scoped</code> attribute can be useful — this attaches a unique HTML <code>data</code> attribute selector to all of your styles, preventing them from colliding globally.</p>\n<p>To use the <code>scoped</code> modifier, create a <code><style></code> element inside <code>ToDoItem.vue</code>, at the bottom of the file, and give it a <code>scoped</code> attribute:</p>\n<div class=\"code-example\"><div class=\"example-header\"><span class=\"language-name\">html</span></div><pre class=\"brush: html notranslate\"><code><style scoped>\n /* … */\n</style>\n</code></pre></div>\n<p>Next, copy the following CSS into the newly created <code><style></code> element:</p>\n<div class=\"code-example\"><div class=\"example-header\"><span class=\"language-name\">css</span></div><pre class=\"brush: css notranslate\"><code>.custom-checkbox > .checkbox-label {\n font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\n -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;\n -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;\n font-weight: 400;\n font-size: 16px;\n font-size: 1rem;\n line-height: 1.25;\n color: #0b0c0c;\n display: block;\n margin-bottom: 5px;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > .checkbox {\n font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\n -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;\n -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;\n font-weight: 400;\n font-size: 16px;\n font-size: 1rem;\n line-height: 1.25;\n box-sizing: border-box;\n width: 100%;\n height: 40px;\n height: 2.5rem;\n margin-top: 0;\n padding: 5px;\n border: 2px solid #0b0c0c;\n border-radius: 0;\n appearance: none;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > input:focus {\n outline: 3px dashed #fd0;\n outline-offset: 0;\n box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 2px;\n}\n.custom-checkbox {\n font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\n -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;\n font-weight: 400;\n font-size: 1.6rem;\n line-height: 1.25;\n display: block;\n position: relative;\n min-height: 40px;\n margin-bottom: 10px;\n padding-left: 40px;\n clear: left;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > input[type=\"checkbox\"] {\n -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;\n cursor: pointer;\n position: absolute;\n z-index: 1;\n top: -2px;\n left: -2px;\n width: 44px;\n height: 44px;\n margin: 0;\n opacity: 0;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > .checkbox-label {\n font-size: inherit;\n font-family: inherit;\n line-height: inherit;\n display: inline-block;\n margin-bottom: 0;\n padding: 8px 15px 5px;\n cursor: pointer;\n touch-action: manipulation;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > label::before {\n content: \"\";\n box-sizing: border-box;\n position: absolute;\n top: 0;\n left: 0;\n width: 40px;\n height: 40px;\n border: 2px solid currentcolor;\n background: transparent;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > input[type=\"checkbox\"]:focus + label::before {\n border-width: 4px;\n outline: 3px dashed #228bec;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > label::after {\n box-sizing: content-box;\n content: \"\";\n position: absolute;\n top: 11px;\n left: 9px;\n width: 18px;\n height: 7px;\n transform: rotate(-45deg);\n border: solid;\n border-width: 0 0 5px 5px;\n border-top-color: transparent;\n opacity: 0;\n background: transparent;\n}\n.custom-checkbox > input[type=\"checkbox\"]:checked + label::after {\n opacity: 1;\n}\n@media only screen and (min-width: 40rem) {\n label,\n input,\n .custom-checkbox {\n font-size: 19px;\n font-size: 1.9rem;\n line-height: 1.31579;\n }\n}\n</code></pre></div>\n<p>Now we need to add some CSS classes to our template to connect the styles.</p>\n<p>To the root <code><div></code>, add a <code>custom-checkbox</code> class.
