Your end-user will however call $ quasar ext remove my-ext to uninstall it, which also uninstalls the npm package. It simply calls the uninstall script and removes it from the registered/installed App Extensions list in your testing Quasar app project folder. The command above similarly does not modify or remove the npm package from package.json and node_modules. This is a good choice for example for something like including Axios.

If the only objective is to load it through a simple app.use(SomeVuePlugin) in a boot file, and maybe some config updates and such, the AE Kit may be a better choice.

This would be a good choice for including something like a Calendar extension.

If you also aim to provide some UI components or such that uses that Vue plugin, you should use the UI Kit.

If your objective is to install a 3rd-party library into Vue, then it depends upon the library… The UI kit can also be used such that your component/directive can also be used with the Quasar Vite plugin or Vue CLI or UMD. This has a ui folder for creating your component/directive, a ui/dev Quasar application for testing your component/directive in isolation, and an app-extension folder for creating the App Extension that will be used for injecting your component/directive via the Quasar CLI into a Quasar app. An example of this would be an extension that provides a UI element for use in your app. does have components or directives) then use the UI kit. If your app extension does involve UI (i.e. An example of this would be an extension that creates a boot file only. does not have components or directives) then use the AE kit.

If your app extension does not involve UI (i.e. There are two official kits for creating App Extensions: Getting startedĪn App Extension is an npm package. If you run into problems, please visit our Discord server’s channel #app-extensions.

Having this experience at your disposal is going to be very valuable when you start building your own App Extensions.

It is assumed you have already installed one of the official App Extensions. This section of the docs deals with creating your own App Extensions.
