webpack - You are using the runtime-only build of Vue where the template compiler is not available

Question

I'm trying to compile my Vue.js app with webpack but I get this warning in the browser.

You are using the runtime-only build of Vue where the template compiler is not available. Either pre-compile the templates into render functions, or use the compiler-included build.

What does this mean? How do I resolve the error?

Answer 1

This is because the version of vue without the template compiler (needed) is included by default. To override this default, add this to your webpack.config.js:

// webpack.config.js
{
    resolve: {
        alias: {
            vue: 'vue/dist/vue.js'
        },
    },
}
