It’s an updated version of Element’s UI, the experience is just as good, the API is just as friendly, and the documentation is just as good.

About the Element Plus

At the beginning of the establishment of this website, I strongly recommended Element — the magic desktop UI component library produced by ele. me team. It was born in 2016, and was originally an internal business component library of Ele. me, mainly used for the rapid development of middle and background management products. After open source, Element has been loved by front-end developers. In more than four years, Element has gained 48.3K star, 11.9K fork and 950,000 NPM downloads per month on GitHub. Has become one of the most popular UI component libraries in the Vue ecosystem.

Element Plus is a new TypeScript + Composition API refactoring project based on the latest Vue 3.0 update to the Element UI. Officials claim to have rewritten almost every line of Element UI code in a way most appropriate for Vue 3.0.

Develop hands-on experience

This is by far the most popular desktop UI component library in the Vue ecosystem, and has been outpacing other major frameworks in terms of usage in the past few years, as few developers using Vue are unaware of. Not long before Vue came out, yu Xi, the author of Vue, also recommended this UI framework, which shows its high quality. In terms of design, The visual design of Element is very suitable for Chinese viewing experience, and now the release of Element Plus is a great news for developers. There is no need to learn other UI frameworks to increase the development cost. If you have used the old version of Element before, you hardly need to learn. Element’s formula and flavor are familiar to use.

The design of the current version of Element Plus has not been redesigned, and a new visual version is under development, which will be released in the near future. This time, it also provides support for UI design and prototyping tools such as Sketch and Axure, which is extremely friendly for designers and product managers to quickly build products. Moreover, some excellent prototype design tools in China, such as Ink Knife and Mockplus, are synchronously equipped with Element’s design components, which further reduces the development and packaging cost of Element and enables users to build excellent mid-background products more quickly and easily by virtue of Element’s excellent design and experience.

Now Vue 3.0 has just come out, and there is a library of UI components like Element Plus available, so there is no reason to reject it.
