Component Patterns
Script Setup Component
<!-- components/UserProfile.vue -->
<script setup lang="ts">
import { ref, computed, onMounted } from 'vue';
interface User {
id: string;
name: string;
email: string;
avatar: string;
}
// Props with defaults
const props = withDefaults(defineProps<{
user: User;
editable?: boolean;
}>(), {
editable: false,
});
// Emits with typing
const emit = defineEmits<{
update: [user: User];
delete: [id: string];
}>();
// Reactive state
const isEditing = ref(false);
const editedName = ref(props.user.name);
// Computed
const initials = computed(() => {
return props.user.name
.split(' ')
.map(n => n[0])
.join('')
.toUpperCase();
});
// Methods
function saveChanges() {
emit('update', { ...props.user, name: editedName.value });
isEditing.value = false;
}
// Lifecycle
onMounted(() => {
console.log('UserProfile mounted');
});
// Expose to parent
defineExpose({
resetForm: () => {
editedName.value = props.user.name;
isEditing.value = false;
},
});
</script>
<template>
<div class="user-profile">
<div class="avatar">
<img v-if="user.avatar" :src="user.avatar" :alt="user.name" />
<span v-else class="initials">{{ initials }}</span>
</div>
<div class="info">
<template v-if="isEditing">
<input v-model="editedName" @keyup.enter="saveChanges" />
<button @click="saveChanges">Save</button>
<button @click="isEditing = false">Cancel</button>
</template>
<template v-else>
<h2>{{ user.name }}</h2>
<p>{{ user.email }}</p>
<button v-if="editable" @click="isEditing = true">Edit</button>
</template>
</div>
<slot name="actions" :user="user" />
</div>
</template>
<style scoped>
.user-profile {
display: flex;
gap: 1rem;
padding: 1rem;
}
.avatar {
width: 64px;
height: 64px;
border-radius: 50%;
overflow: hidden;
}
.initials {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: #e5e7eb;
font-weight: bold;
}
</style>
Composable Pattern
// composables/useUser.ts
import { ref, computed, readonly } from 'vue';
interface User {
id: string;
name: string;
email: string;
}
export function useUser(userId: string) {
const user = ref<User | null>(null);
const loading = ref(false);
const error = ref<Error | null>(null);
const isAuthenticated = computed(() => !!user.value);
async function fetchUser() {
loading.value = true;
error.value = null;
try {
const response = await fetch(`/api/users/${userId}`);
if (!response.ok) throw new Error('Failed to fetch user');
user.value = await response.json();
} catch (e) {
error.value = e as Error;
} finally {
loading.value = false;
}
}
async function updateUser(data: Partial<User>) {
if (!user.value) return;
loading.value = true;
try {
const response = await fetch(`/api/users/${userId}`, {
method: 'PATCH',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify(data),
});
user.value = await response.json();
} catch (e) {
error.value = e as Error;
} finally {
loading.value = false;
}
}
return {
user: readonly(user),
loading: readonly(loading),
error: readonly(error),
isAuthenticated,
fetchUser,
updateUser,
};
}
// composables/useLocalStorage.ts
import { ref, watch } from 'vue';
export function useLocalStorage<T>(key: string, defaultValue: T) {
const stored = localStorage.getItem(key);
const data = ref<T>(stored ? JSON.parse(stored) : defaultValue);
watch(
data,
(newValue) => {
localStorage.setItem(key, JSON.stringify(newValue));
},
{ deep: true }
);
return data;
}
Provide/Inject Pattern
// context/theme.ts
import { provide, inject, ref, type Ref, type InjectionKey } from 'vue';
type Theme = 'light' | 'dark';
interface ThemeContext {
theme: Ref<Theme>;
toggleTheme: () => void;
}
const ThemeKey: InjectionKey<ThemeContext> = Symbol('theme');
export function provideTheme() {
const theme = ref<Theme>('light');
function toggleTheme() {
theme.value = theme.value === 'light' ? 'dark' : 'light';
}
provide(ThemeKey, { theme, toggleTheme });
return { theme, toggleTheme };
}
export function useTheme() {
const context = inject(ThemeKey);
if (!context) {
throw new Error('useTheme must be used within a theme provider');
}
return context;
}
Vue Router Setup
// router/index.ts
import { createRouter, createWebHistory } from 'vue-router';
import type { RouteRecordRaw } from 'vue-router';
const routes: RouteRecordRaw[] = [
{
path: '/',
component: () => import('@/layouts/DefaultLayout.vue'),
children: [
{
path: '',
name: 'home',
component: () => import('@/views/Home.vue'),
},
{
path: 'dashboard',
name: 'dashboard',
component: () => import('@/views/Dashboard.vue'),
meta: { requiresAuth: true },
},
],
},
{
path: '/login',
name: 'login',
component: () => import('@/views/Login.vue'),
},
];
const router = createRouter({
history: createWebHistory(),
routes,
});
// Navigation guard
router.beforeEach((to, from, next) => {
const isAuthenticated = !!localStorage.getItem('token');
if (to.meta.requiresAuth && !isAuthenticated) {
next({ name: 'login', query: { redirect: to.fullPath } });
} else {
next();
}
});
export default router;
Best Practices
- Use script setup for cleaner components
- Create composables for reusable logic
- Type props and emits properly
- Use readonly for exposed reactive state
- Leverage provide/inject for deep dependency passing

Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
