Keen UI is a Vue.js UI library with a simple API, inspired by Google's Material Design.
Keen UI is not a CSS framework. Therefore, it doesn't include styles for a grid system, typography, etc. Instead, the focus is on interactive components that require Javascript. You should be able to use Keen UI with any page layout, structure, or CSS framework.

- Vue.js (v3)
- use [email protected] for Vue 1.x support.
- use [email protected] for Vue 2.x support.
Optional
Keen UI supports browsers with native ES2015 support (same as Vue 3).
npm install keen-ui --saveBefore using Keen UI, ensure that the following CSS resets are applied to your site.
*,
*::before,
*::after {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
html {
font-size: 100%;
}You can add the reset to your stylesheet (before other styles). If you are using a CSS framework, check to see if the framework already includes a reset (most CSS frameworks do). The root font size set on <html> can be customized to globally resize the components.
Use as a Vue plugin (globally registers all components):
import { createApp } from "vue";
import * as KeenUI from "keen-ui";
import "keen-ui/keen-ui.css";
const app = createApp();
app.use(KeenUI);Use individual components:
import { createApp } from "vue";
import { UiAlert, UiButton } from "keen-ui";
import "keen-ui/keen-ui.css";
const app = createApp({
components: {
UiAlert,
UiButton,
},
});First, add a stylesheet link to the Keen UI CSS file in dist/keen-ui.min.css. Then, add a script tag pointing to dist/keen-ui.min.js.
The library is made available globally via window.KeenUI so that you can use it on your app instance.
Example:
<!-- Place this in <head> -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/keen-ui.min.css" />
<!-- Place this in <body> -->
<div id="app">
<ui-button>{{ message }}</ui-button>
</div>
<script src="path/to/vue.global.prod.js"></script>
<script src="path/to/keen-ui.min.js"></script>
<script>
const app = Vue.createApp({
data() {
return {
message: "Hello world!",
};
},
});
app.use(KeenUI);
app.mount("#app");
</script>You can customize many aspects of Keen UI, including theme colors, component sizes, default props, and more.
See Customization.
Each component is built into a standalone file with all its dependencies included. You can use these individual standalone components without importing the rest of the library. The standalone components are located in the lib/ folder.
Note Standalone component files each contain their own dependencies, and many contain overlapping dependencies. As a result, using multiple standalone files may increase the size of your bundle due to duplicate code.
import { createApp } from "vue";
import "keen-ui/src/bootstrap"; // Required when using standalone components, should be imported only once in your project
import UiButton from "keen-ui/lib/UiButton";
import "keen-ui/css/UiButton.css";
const app = createApp({
components: {
UiButton,
},
});Keen UI is open source and released under the MIT Licence.
