Command vue init requires a global addon

Question

When I tried to vue init webpack test-app, I got the following error:

Command vue init requires a global addon to be installed.
Please run npm in         


        

Answer 1

From the vue-cli website, Vue CLI 3 uses the same vue binary , so it overwrites Vue CLI 2 (vue-cli). So if you need the legacy vue inityou should install the global bridge

npm install -g @vue/cli-init
# vue init now works exactly the same as vue-cli@2.x
