Component Structure
Single File Component (SFC)
<template>
<div :class="['container', props.className]">
<h2 class="title">{{ props.title }}</h2>
<div v-if="isLoading" class="loading">
Loading...
</div>
<div v-else class="content">
<slot />
<button
v-if="props.showAction"
@click="handleAction"
class="action-button"
>
{{ actionLabel }}
</button>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
import { ref, computed, onMounted, watch } from 'vue';
// Props
interface Props {
title: string;
showAction?: boolean;
className?: string;
items?: Item[];
}
const props = withDefaults(defineProps<Props>(), {
showAction: false,
className: '',
items: () => [],
});
// Emits
interface Emits {
(e: 'action-clicked'): void;
(e: 'update:modelValue', value: string): void;
}
const emit = defineEmits<Emits>();
// State
const isLoading = ref(false);
const internalValue = ref('');
// Computed
const actionLabel = computed(() => {
return isLoading.value ? 'Processing...' : 'Click Me';
});
// Methods
const handleAction = () => {
emit('action-clicked');
};
const loadData = async () => {
isLoading.value = true;
try {
// Fetch data
} finally {
isLoading.value = false;
}
};
// Lifecycle
onMounted(() => {
loadData();
});
// Watchers
watch(() => props.items, (newItems) => {
console.log('Items changed:', newItems);
}, { deep: true });
// Expose (optional - for parent template refs)
defineExpose({
loadData,
});
</script>
<style scoped>
.container {
padding: 1rem;
border-radius: 0.5rem;
background-color: var(--background);
}
.title {
margin-bottom: 1rem;
font-size: 1.5rem;
font-weight: 600;
}
.loading {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
padding: 2rem;
}
.action-button {
padding: 0.5rem 1rem;
border-radius: 0.25rem;
background-color: var(--primary);
color: white;
border: none;
cursor: pointer;
}
.action-button:hover {
opacity: 0.9;
}
</style>
Component Patterns
Simple Presentational Component
<template>
<button
:class="['btn', `btn-${variant}`]"
:disabled="disabled"
@click="$emit('click')"
>
{{ label }}
</button>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
interface Props {
label: string;
variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary';
disabled?: boolean;
}
withDefaults(defineProps<Props>(), {
variant: 'primary',
disabled: false,
});
defineEmits<{
(e: 'click'): void;
}>();
</script>
Form Input with v-model
<template>
<div class="input-group">
<label :for="inputId">{{ label }}</label>
<input
:id="inputId"
:type="type"
:value="modelValue"
@input="$emit('update:modelValue', ($event.target as HTMLInputElement).value)"
:placeholder="placeholder"
/>
<span v-if="error" class="error">{{ error }}</span>
</div>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
interface Props {
modelValue: string;
label: string;
type?: string;
placeholder?: string;
error?: string;
}
withDefaults(defineProps<Props>(), {
type: 'text',
placeholder: '',
error: '',
});
defineEmits<{
(e: 'update:modelValue', value: string): void;
}>();
const inputId = `input-${Math.random().toString(36).slice(2)}`;
</script>
Composable for Data Fetching
// composables/useUsers.ts
import { ref } from 'vue';
export interface User {
id: number;
name: string;
email: string;
}
export function useUsers() {
const users = ref<User[]>([]);
const loading = ref(false);
const error = ref<string | null>(null);
const fetchUsers = async () => {
loading.value = true;
error.value = null;
try {
const response = await fetch('/api/users');
users.value = await response.json();
} catch (err) {
error.value = (err as Error).message;
} finally {
loading.value = false;
}
};
return {
users,
loading,
error,
fetchUsers,
};
}

Testing Pattern
// ComponentName.spec.ts
import { mount } from '@vue/test-utils';
import ComponentName from './ComponentName.vue';
describe('ComponentName', () => {
it('renders with required props', () => {
const wrapper = mount(ComponentName, {
props: {
title: 'Test Title',
},
});
expect(wrapper.text()).toContain('Test Title');
});
it('emits event on button click', async () => {
const wrapper = mount(ComponentName, {
props: {
title: 'Test',
showAction: true,
},
});
await wrapper.find('.action-button').trigger('click');
expect(wrapper.emitted('action-clicked')).toBeTruthy();
});
});
Best Practices
- Use Composition API with
<script setup> - Define props with TypeScript interfaces
- Use
withDefaultsfor default values - Define emits with TypeScript
- Use computed for derived state
- Keep template logic simple
- Use composables for reusable logic
- Scoped styles by default
- Proper TypeScript typing
- Test component behavior
Output Checklist
- ✅ Component .vue file created
- ✅ Props properly typed
- ✅ Emits defined
- ✅ Tests created
- ✅ Composables extracted (if needed)
- ✅ Accessibility considered
- 📝 Usage example provided
