## Quick start

This part walks you through the process of using Element in a webpack project.

### Use Starter Kit

We provide a general [project template](https://github.com/ElementUI/element-starter) for you. For Laravel users, we also have a [template](https://github.com/ElementUI/element-in-laravel-starter). You can download and use them directly.

If you prefer not to use them, please read the following.

### Use vue-cli

We can also start a project using [vue-cli](https://github.com/vuejs/vue-cli):

```shell
> npm i -g vue-cli
> mkdir my-project && cd my-project
> vue init webpack
> npm i && npm i element-ui
```

### Import Element

You can import Element entirely, or just import what you need. Let's start with fully import.

#### Fully import

In main.js:
```javascript
import Vue from 'vue'
import ElementUI from 'element-ui'
import 'element-ui/lib/theme-chalk/index.css'
import App from './App.vue'

Vue.use(ElementUI)

new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  render: h => h(App)
})
```
The above imports Element entirely. Note that CSS file needs to be imported separately.

#### On demand

With the help of [babel-plugin-component](https://github.com/QingWei-Li/babel-plugin-component), we can import components we actually need, making the project smaller than otherwise.

First, install babel-plugin-component:

```bash
npm install babel-plugin-component -D
```

Then edit .babelrc:
```json
{
  "presets": [
    ["es2015", { "modules": false }]
  ],
  "plugins": [["component", [
    {
      "libraryName": "element-ui",
      "styleLibraryName": "theme-chalk"
    }
  ]]]
}
```

Next, if you need Button and Select, edit main.js:

```javascript
import Vue from 'vue'
import { Button, Select } from 'element-ui'
import App from './App.vue'

Vue.component(Button.name, Button)
Vue.component(Select.name, Select)
/* or
 * Vue.use(Button)
 * Vue.use(Select)
 */

new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  render: h => h(App)
})
```

Vue.prototype.$msgbox = MessageBox
Vue.prototype.$alert = MessageBox.alert
Vue.prototype.$confirm = MessageBox.confirm
Vue.prototype.$prompt = MessageBox.prompt
Vue.prototype.$notify = Notification
Vue.prototype.$message = Message
```

### Global config
When importing Element, you can define a global config object. For now this object has only one property: `size`, which sets the default size for all components:

Fully import Element：
```JS
import Vue from 'vue'
import Element from 'element-ui'
Vue.use(Element, { size: 'small' })
```

Partial import Element：
```JS
import Vue from 'vue'
import { Button } from 'element-ui'

Vue.prototype.$ELEMENT = { size: 'small' }
Vue.use(Button)
```
With the above config, the default size of all components that have size attribute will be 'small'.

### Start coding

Now you have implemented Vue and Element to your project, and it's time to write your code. Start development mode:

```bash
# visit localhost:8086
npm run dev
```

Build:

```bash
npm run build
```
Please refer to each component's documentation to learn how to use them.
