MDB CLI
CLI installation is the most efficient way to use MDB. It enables options such as:
- Free hosting (supports custom domains, SSL, FTP access)
- Install any MDB package with a single command
- Easy updates with a single command
- Backend starter templates (Laravel, plain PHP, node.js & more)
- WordPress setup in 3 minutes (blog, ecommerce or blank project)
- Git repository for you and your team
Vite
Note: As of version 3.0.0 of the MDB Vue Ui Kit, we encourage everyone to use TypeScript with our components.
Vite (French word for "fast", pronounced /vit/) is a build tool that aims to provide a faster and leaner development experience for modern web projects. Our UI KIT can be imported in Vite applications according to the following procedure:
Step 1
Init the project. Select a vue framework during installation.
npm init vite@latest
Step 2
Navigate to app's directory. Replace <vite-project>
with your project name.
cd <vite-project>
Step 3
Install dependencies.
npm install
Step 4
Setup MDB.
npm install mdb-vue-ui-kit
Step 5
Add devSourceMap
to your vite.config.ts file
export default defineConfig({
css: {
devSourcemap: true,
},
plugins: [vue()],
});
Step 6
Import CSS. Add the following line at the beginning of your main.ts file:
import 'mdb-vue-ui-kit/css/mdb.min.css';
Step 7
Import Font Awesome. Add the following line in public/index.html file inside
head
section:
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/6.0.0/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
Step 8
Import Roboto font. Add the following line in public/index.html file inside
head
section:
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:300,400,500,700,900&display=swap" rel="stylesheet" />
Set font family in src/App.vue inside style
section as in the
example:
#app {
font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}
Step 9
Import MDB components. You can use an experimental <script setup>
proposal. In the example below we showed
how to import an exemplary MDBBtn
component.
<template>
<h1>{{ msg }}</h1>
<p>
<a href="https://vitejs.dev/guide/features.html" target="_blank">
Vite Documentation
</a>
|
<a href="https://v3.vuejs.org/" target="_blank">Vue 3 Documentation</a>
</p>
<MDBBtn color="primary" class="mb-3" @click="state.count++">
count is: {{ state.count }}
</MDBBtn>
<p>
Edit components/HelloWorld.vue to test hot module replacement.
</p>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
import { defineProps, reactive } from "vue";
import { MDBBtn } from "mdb-vue-ui-kit";
defineProps({
msg: String,
});
const state = reactive({ count: 0 });
</script>
<style scoped>
a {
color: #42b983;
}
</style>
Step 9

CDN
You can easily test MDB Vue components by adding CDN scripts to your classic HTML template without the need for installing any packages. All components will be accessible from the global variable mdb. In this case, however, you must not use PascalCase when creating component names. We recommend adopting a naming convention as in the example below:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>MDB Vue App</title>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta
name="viewport"
content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0"
/>
<link
href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/6.0.0/css/all.min.css"
rel="stylesheet"
/>
<link
href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:300,400,500,700,900&display=swap"
rel="stylesheet"
/>
<link
rel="stylesheet"
href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mdb-vue-ui-kit/css/mdb.min.css"
/>
</head>
<body>
<div id="app">
<mdb-btn color="primary">Button</mdb-btn>
</div>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue@next"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mdb-vue-ui-kit/js/mdb.umd.min.js"></script>

};
Vue.createApp(App).mount("#app");
</script>
</body>
</html>
