## Usage
The Link component is a wrapper around [`<NuxtLink>`](https://nuxt.com/docs/api/components/nuxt-link) through the [`custom`](https://router.vuejs.org/api/interfaces/RouterLinkProps.html#Properties-custom) prop that provides a few extra props:
- `inactive-class` prop to set a class when the link is inactive, `active-class` is used when active.
- `exact` prop to style with `active-class` when the link is active and the route is exactly the same as the current route.
- `exact-query` and `exact-hash` props to style with `active-class` when the link is active and the query or hash is exactly the same as the current query or hash.
- use `exact-query="partial"` to style with `active-class` when the link is active and the query partially match the current query.
The incentive behind this is to provide the same API as NuxtLink back in Nuxt 2 / Vue 2. You can read more about it in the Vue Router [migration from Vue 2](https://router.vuejs.org/guide/migration/#removal-of-the-exact-prop-in-router-link) guide.

It also renders an `<a>` tag when a `to` prop is provided, otherwise it defaults to rendering a `<button>` tag. The default behavior can be customized using the `as` prop.
It is used underneath by the [Button](/components/button), [Dropdown](/components/dropdown) and [VerticalNavigation](/components/vertical-navigation) components.
## IntelliSense
If you're using VSCode and wish to get autocompletion for the classes `active-class` and `inactive-class`, you can add the following settings to your `.vscode/settings.json`:
```json [.vscode/settings.json]
{
"tailwindCSS.classAttributes": [
"active-class",
"inactive-class"
],
}
```
