Template Details

This is a Vue 3 starter template for single-page applications (SPAs), using Vite as the build tool and integrating TypeScript, Pinia, and UnoCSS. The template provides a file-based routing and layout system: pages placed in src/pages and layouts in src/layouts take effect automatically. Components, APIs, and modules under the src directory support auto-import, and network requests are wrapped around Axios. For internationalization, translation files in the locales directory are auto-imported, with support for language switching. Icons are used via classes through UnoCSS's icon preset, and different icon sets can be referenced. Testing uses Vitest, the repository includes a CI workflow, and it provides a zero-config deployment method for Netlify while noting that other deployment methods are also possible.

Before use, note the following: the template requires pnpm to install dependencies, and the development server runs on port 9865 by default. After creating a project from the template, the README recommends modifying the browser title in src/locales/*.json and .env, and replacing the favicon and logo under public. The repository is MIT licensed, and the free scope is limited to the code of this version itself; third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons, as well as external services like domains and hosting, must be checked separately or may incur costs.

License & source material

Usage conditions & limitations

Free to use · keep license notice

This entry covers the free version under the MIT license in the public repository; the free scope is the code of this version and does not imply that external services or third-party assets are free.

Must comply with when using

  • The code of this version may be used, modified, used commercially, and distributed free of charge.
  • When distributing copies or substantial portions of the code, retain the original author's copyright notice and the full MIT license notice.
  • The code is provided as is; warranties and limitations of liability are governed by the original license and applicable law.

Additional costs & items to verify

  • Using this template requires installing the pnpm package manager first (can be installed globally via npm install -g pnpm); otherwise, dependencies cannot be installed and the project cannot be run as described in the README.
  • The development server runs on port 9865 by default, not common ports such as 5173, so local debugging requires accessing http://localhost:9865.
  • After creating a project from the template, you must manually modify the browser title in src/locales/*.json and .env according to the checklist, and replace the favicon and logo under public; the template does not perform these customizations automatically.
  • The README uses Netlify as a zero-config deployment example; using that platform requires registering a Netlify account. External services such as domains and hosting may incur costs and must be checked independently.
  • Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets must be checked against their respective licenses; the MIT license of the code alone is not sufficient to determine this.
  • External services such as domains, hosting, databases, payments, or AI may incur separate charges.

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Vue as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
