Learn how to install and configure the module in your Nuxt app.

1. Install @nuxthq/ui dependency to your project:

::code-group

yarn add -D @nuxthq/ui

npm install -D @nuxthq/ui

pnpm i -D @nuxthq/ui

::

2. Add it to your modules section in your nuxt.config:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxthq/ui']
})

That's it! You can now use all the components and composables in your Nuxt app ✨

::alert{icon="i-heroicons-exclamation-triangle"} As this module installs @nuxtjs/tailwindcss and @nuxtjs/color-mode for you, you should remove them from your modules and dependencies if you've previously installed them manually. ::
