What you get

• 50+ components. Buttons, form controls, dialogs, popovers, tabs, sidebars, app shells and more. Built with Vue 3, Tailwind CSS and Reka UI primitives.
• Design tokens with dark mode built in. Semantic surface, ink and outline color tokens, plus radius, typography and elevation scales. Tokens flip under [data-theme="dark"], so a dark: variant is never needed.
• Data composables for Frappe. useCall, useList, useDoc, useDoctype and useNewDoc handle fetching, caching, pagination and writes against a Frappe backend.
• Rich text editor, lists and charts as separate entries: frappe-ui/editor (TipTap), frappe-ui/list and frappe-ui/charts (ECharts).
• Vite plugins for the Frappe dev-server proxy, Lucide icon auto-imports, DocType type generation and production builds.
• TypeScript first. Every core component ships typed props, slots and emits.
• Recipes. Eight full app screens built with frappe-ui, such as mail, tickets, deals and accounting, each with a desktop and a mobile layout. See them on the home page.
• Agent skills. An agent skill and llms.txt teach Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and similar tools how to use the library. See Using with AI agents.

Quick start

Requires Node >=20.19.0, Vite, Vue >=3.5 and Tailwind CSS >=3.4 <4.

npm install frappe-ui

Add the Vite plugin in vite.config.js:

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
import frappeui from 'frappe-ui/vite'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [frappeui(), vue()],
})

Add the preset and content globs in tailwind.config.js:

import preset, { content } from 'frappe-ui/tailwind'

export default {
  presets: [preset],
  content: [...content, './index.html', './src/**/*.{vue,js,ts}'],
}

Import the stylesheet once from your CSS entry:

@import 'frappe-ui/style.css';

Wrap your app root in FrappeUIProvider and start using components:

<script setup>
import { FrappeUIProvider, Button, useList } from 'frappe-ui'

const todos = useList({
  doctype: 'ToDo',
  fields: ['name', 'description'],
  filters: { status: 'Open' },
})
</script>

<template>
  <FrappeUIProvider>
    <ul>
      <li v-for="todo in todos.data" :key="todo.name">
        {{ todo.description }}
      </li>
    </ul>
    <Button variant="solid" icon-left="lucide-plus" @click="todos.next()">
      Load more
    </Button>
  </FrappeUIProvider>
</template>

The full setup, including the starter template and TypeScript, is on the Installation page. The Frappe app guide covers the dev-server proxy.
