How to create a theme switcher in Vue
Friday, January 2, 2026
Theme switchers enable users to customize application appearance with multiple color schemes, enhancing personalization and brand flexibility. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve built theme switchers for enterprise Vue applications throughout my 11 years of frontend development. The most versatile approach is managing theme state reactively and applying theme-specific CSS custom properties. This method supports unlimited themes, smooth transitions, and maintains persistent user preferences across sessions.
