Vue.js requires only a single root element for each component, which is typically wrapped in a div
tag. However, this can lead to unexpected issues, such as breaking the layout when using Bootstrap and inserting a div between specific elements like <b-row>
and <b-col>
.
Certain elements within frameworks have specific order requirements, making it problematic to have only one root element.
Is there a way to dynamically define the root element?
To better understand, consider this example:
If we have a component called my-h1
with the following structure:
<template>
<div>
<h1>Hello world</h1>
</div>
</template>
and we include it like this:
<div id="my-app">
<my-h1 />
</div>
The result will be:
<div id="my-app">
<div>
<h1>Hello world</h1>
</div>
</div>
How can we achieve different outputs like:
<div id="my-app">
<p>
<h1>Hello world</h1>
</p>
</div>
or
<div id="my-app">
<a>
<h1>Hello world</h1>
</a>
</div>
(Note: These tags are used for illustration purposes only.)
The goal is to maintain a single root element while being able to customize it with a prop or alternative method. :)
