Vue CLI

/vjuː siː ɛl aɪ/ · Noun · Development

Definitions

  1. The official command-line scaffolding tool for Vue.js projects that generates project boilerplate with pre-configured build tooling (webpack), linting, testing, and plugin support. Largely superseded by create-vue and Vite in the Vue 3 era.

    In plain English: A command-line tool that sets up a new Vue project with all the standard build tools pre-configured.

    Example: "Vue CLI was great for Vue 2 projects, but for anything new we just use create-vue with Vite — it's way faster."
