Let's start with the popular Vue.js 2.x version. The particles.vue npm package.
Vue.js 2.x
Installation
yarn add particles.vue
Usage
import Particles from "particles.vue";
// this adds the particles plugin to Vue.js
Vue.use(Particles);
Demo config
<template>
<div id="app">
<!-- use this tag to add a particle container with an external configuration -->
<Particles

:particlesInit="particlesInit"
:particlesLoaded="particlesLoaded"

/>
<!-- or -->
<!-- use this tag to add a particle container with an inline configuration -->
<Particles

:particlesInit="particlesInit"
:particlesLoaded="particlesLoaded"
:options="{

TypeScript errors
If you are using TypeScript and you have some errors while importing/using Particles plugin try adding the following import before the previous code:
declare module "particles.vue";
Let's continue with the new Vue.js 3.x version. The particles.vue3 npm package.
Vue.js 3.x
Installation
yarn add particles.vue3
Usage
import Particles from "particles.vue3";
// this will add the particles plugin to your Vue.js app
createApp(App).use(Particles)

<template>
<div id="app">

Thanks for sharing! I used the particles library back in 2018 when I made my first portfolio. It's such a cool library. Now that I'm getting my hands dirty with Vue, maybe I'll incorporate it in a future project. Bookmarked your post for future reference. Thanks again :)
vue 2 not works dude
I fixed the CodeSandbox, if it's what you were talking about.
