+# Integrating Ignite UI Web Components — Vue 3
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install igniteui-webcomponents
+```
+
+## Setup
+
+### Step 1 — Configure Vue to recognize custom elements
+
+Vue needs to know which tags are custom elements so it does not warn about unknown components.
+
+**With Vite** (`vite.config.ts`):
+
+```typescript
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
+import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [
+    vue({
+      template: {
+        compilerOptions: {
+          // Treat all igc-* tags as custom elements
+          isCustomElement: (tag) => tag.startsWith('igc-')
+        }
+      }
+    })
+  ]
+});
+```
+
+**With Vue CLI** (`vue.config.js`):
+
+```javascript
+module.exports = {
+  chainWebpack: config => {
+    config.module
+      .rule('vue')
+      .use('vue-loader')
+      .tap(options => ({
+        ...options,
+        compilerOptions: {
+          isCustomElement: tag => tag.startsWith('igc-')
+        }
+      }));
+  }
+};
+```
+
+### Step 2 — Register the theme and components
+
+In `src/main.ts`, import a theme and register the components before mounting:
+
+```typescript
+import { createApp } from 'vue';
+import App from './App.vue';
+import 'igniteui-webcomponents/themes/light/bootstrap.css';
+import { defineComponents, IgcButtonComponent, IgcInputComponent } from 'igniteui-webcomponents';
+
+defineComponents(IgcButtonComponent, IgcInputComponent);
+
+createApp(App).mount('#app');
+```
+
+## Available Themes
+
+| Theme     | Light                                                  | Dark                                                  |
+|-----------|--------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------|
+| Bootstrap | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/light/bootstrap.css`    | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/dark/bootstrap.css`    |
+| Material  | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/light/material.css`     | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/dark/material.css`     |
+| Fluent    | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/light/fluent.css`       | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/dark/fluent.css`       |
+| Indigo    | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/light/indigo.css`       | `igniteui-webcomponents/themes/dark/indigo.css`       |
+
+## Usage in Components
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <div>
+    <igc-button variant="contained" @click="handleClick">
+      Click me
+    </igc-button>
+
+    <igc-input
+      :label="inputLabel"
+      placeholder="Enter your name"
+      :required="true"
+      @igcChange="handleChange">
+    </igc-input>
+  </div>
+</template>
+
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import { ref } from 'vue';
+
+const inputLabel = ref('Name');
+
+const handleClick = () => {
+  console.log('Button clicked');
+};
+
+const handleChange = (event: CustomEvent) => {
+  console.log('Input changed', event.detail);
+};
+</script>
+```
+
+## Working with Complex Properties
+
+Attributes only accept strings. Pass objects and arrays using a template ref:
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <igc-combo ref="comboRef"></igc-combo>
+</template>
+
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import { ref, onMounted } from 'vue';
+
+const comboRef = ref<HTMLElement | null>(null);
+
+onMounted(() => {
+  if (comboRef.value) {
+    (comboRef.value as any).data = [
+      { value: 1, label: 'Item 1' },
+      { value: 2, label: 'Item 2' },
+    ];
+  }
+});
+</script>
+```
+
+## Key Considerations
+
+| Concern | Details |
+|---------|---------|
+| **isCustomElement** | Required in Vite/CLI config so Vue doesn't treat `igc-*` tags as unresolved components |
+| **Event binding** | Use `@igcInput`, `@igcChange`, etc. — not `@input` or `@change` |
+| **Property binding** | Use `:property="value"` or `v-bind:property="value"` for reactive data |
+| **Complex data** | Use a template ref and set the property in `onMounted` |
+
+## TypeScript Support
+
+The `igniteui-webcomponents` package automatically registers all component types in `HTMLElementTagNameMap`. DOM queries are fully typed:
+
+```typescript
+import { defineComponents, IgcButtonComponent } from 'igniteui-webcomponents';
+
+defineComponents(IgcButtonComponent);
+
+// Automatically typed as IgcButtonComponent | null
+const button = document.querySelector('igc-button');
+```
+
+## Common Issues
+
+### Vue warns "Unknown custom element: igc-button"
+
+Configure `isCustomElement` in `vite.config.ts` (or `vue.config.js`) so Vue skips resolution for `igc-*` tags.
+
+### Events not firing
+
+Use Vue's `@igcInput` / `@igcChange` syntax. Ignite UI components emit prefixed custom events — standard DOM events like `input` or `change` behave differently.
+
+### No styles applied
+
+Ensure you import a theme CSS file in `main.ts` before `createApp`. Without it, components render unstyled.
+
+### Complex data not reflecting
+
+Set objects and arrays via a `ref` in `onMounted`. Do not bind them as HTML attributes — attributes only accept serialized strings.
