@openpages/vue

Embeddable Vue 3 layout engine for comics, newspapers, magazines, and similar print-inspired pages — sections with rich in-place format tooling, multi-column text flow, and avoidance zones for overlapping content.

Stack: Vue 3 · TypeScript · MIT

Install

pnpm add @openpages/vue
# or: npm install @openpages/vue
# or: yarn add @openpages/vue

Peer dependency: vue ^3.5
Node: >=22.14.0

Quick start

Styles are self-contained (Shadow DOM). Do not import @openpages/vue/style.css in the host.

Mount the editor:

<script setup lang="ts">
import { createDocument, OpenPagesEditor, type OpenPagesDocument } from '@openpages/vue'
import { ref } from 'vue'

const doc = ref<OpenPagesDocument>(createDocument({ title: 'Untitled' }))
</script>

<template>
  <OpenPagesEditor v-model="doc" />
</template>

Your host must compile Vue SFCs (@vitejs/plugin-vue or equivalent).

Host-controlled chrome

OpenPagesEditor supports host-driven tooling without forking the package:

Document tools sit on the top toolbar; selection tools float above the selected section(s).
