Question 1

How do I install vue-gtag in a Vue 3 project?

Install via npm with 'npm install vue-gtag', then import and configure it as a Vue plugin. Refer to the GitBook documentation for detailed setup steps and initialization options.

Question 2

vue-gtag vs vue-analytics: which is better for Vue 3?

Accepted Answer

vue-gtag is designed specifically for Vue 3 and Google's gtag.js, offering modern features and TypeScript support. vue-analytics is older and may not fully support Vue 3, so vue-gtag is the preferred choice for new projects.

Accepted Answer

Yes, when properly configured, it integrates with Vue Router to automatically track page views on navigation events, but you need to set it up during plugin initialization.

Question 5

Can I use vue-gtag with TypeScript without issues?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it includes built-in TypeScript definitions, allowing for type-safe usage in Vue 3 projects, which helps prevent errors in event tracking and configuration.

Question 6

Is vue-gtag compatible with Nuxt.js for server-side rendering?

Accepted Answer

The documentation doesn't explicitly mention SSR or Nuxt.js support, so compatibility may be limited. You might need to test or look for community workarounds for server-side contexts.
