'nuxt-headlessui'
],
// Optionally change the default prefix.
headlessui: {

}
}
That's it! You can now use Headless UI in your Nuxt app ✨
After completing setup, simply use the headless components in your components and pages and style them with your favourite CSS framework. You don't have to import the components. Here is an example of a Listbox (Select), which uses heroicons and Tailwind CSS:
<template>
<div class="container mx-auto">
<div class="w-72">
<HeadlessListbox v-model="selectedPerson">
<div class="relative mt-1">
<HeadlessListboxButton
class="relative w-full cursor-default rounded-lg bg-white py-2 pl-3 pr-10 text-left shadow-md focus:outline-none focus-visible:border-indigo-500 focus-visible:ring-2 focus-visible:ring-white focus-visible:ring-opacity-75 focus-visible:ring-offset-2 focus-visible:ring-offset-orange-300 sm:text-sm"
>
<span class="block truncate">{{ selectedPerson.name }}</span>
<span
class="pointer-events-none absolute inset-y-0 right-0 flex items-center pr-2"
>
<ChevronUpDownIcon
class="h-5 w-5 text-gray-400"
aria-hidden="true"
/>
</span>
</HeadlessListboxButton>
<transition
leave-active-class="transition duration-100 ease-in"
leave-from-class="opacity-100"
leave-to-class="opacity-0"
>
<HeadlessListboxOptions
class="absolute mt-1 max-h-60 w-full overflow-auto rounded-md bg-white py-1 text-base shadow-lg ring-1 ring-black ring-opacity-5 focus:outline-none sm:text-sm"
>
<HeadlessListboxOption
v-for="person in people"
v-slot="{ active, selected }"
:key="person.name"
:value="person"
as="template"
>
<li
:class="[
active ? 'bg-amber-100 text-amber-900' : 'text-gray-900',
'relative cursor-default select-none py-2 pl-10 pr-4',
]"
>
<span
:class="[
selected ? 'font-medium' : 'font-normal',
'block truncate',
]"
>{{ person.name }}</span>
<span
v-if="selected"
class="absolute inset-y-0 left-0 flex items-center pl-3 text-amber-600"
>
<CheckIcon class="h-5 w-5" aria-hidden="true" />
</span>
</li>
</HeadlessListboxOption>
</HeadlessListboxOptions>
</transition>
</div>
</HeadlessListbox>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue'
import { CheckIcon, ChevronUpDownIcon } from '@heroicons/vue/20/solid'
const people = [
{ name: 'Wade Cooper' },
{ name: 'Arlene Mccoy' },
{ name: 'Devon Webb' },
{ name: 'Tom Cook' },
{ name: 'Tanya Fox' },
{ name: 'Hellen Schmidt' }
]
const selectedPerson = ref(people[0])
</script>
If you are using Tailwind CSS, you can use the @headlessui/tailwindcss plugin to get modifiers like ui-open:*
and ui-active:*
.
Some headless components, such as Portal
, Popover
, or Dialog
are client-only components. They will lead to errors when rendered on the server. You need to wrap them with ClientOnly.
