What you get

  • You own the code

    npx openvolt-vue add Button writes the component into src/volt as a regular .vue file. The styling is Tailwind classes you can read and change; keyboard support and accessibility still come from OpenVue underneath.

  • Tested on every pull request

    CI installs OpenVolt into a fresh project, type checks it and runs it in a real browser, so a component that breaks fails the build before it ships.

  • Works offline

    Nothing is downloaded when you add a component, so the CLI works in CI, behind firewalls and without git.

  • Your edits are safe

    Components you have customised are never overwritten unless you pass --overwrite. Coming from PrimeVue Volt, npx @openvue/migrate followed by npx openvolt-vue add all --overwrite moves a project across.

Why this project exists

Volt depends on PrimeVue v4, which has moved to security-only maintenance with a read-only issue tracker. Projects built on Volt had nowhere to report a broken component.

OpenVolt is the same 69 components and the same design, rebuilt on openvue instead of primevue. It lives in the OpenVue repository and ships with every OpenVue release, so the components and the library underneath them cannot drift apart.

The upstream CLI cloned the repository and copied whatever was on the main branch at that moment. The OpenVolt CLI carries its components inside the published package, so an install always gives you files from a release, matched to your OpenVue version.
