In Vue, @ is an alias for the src directory, which is the root directory for your project's source files. On the other hand, ./ is used to import a component relative to the current file.
So, when you use @ to import a component, you are importing it from the src directory, regardless of where the current file is located. This is useful when you have a deep directory structure and want to avoid long relative paths.
When you use ./ to import a component, you are importing it relative to the current file. This is useful when you want to import a component that is located in the same directory as the current file, or in a subdirectory.
In the example provided, the components are imported using @ because they are located in the src/Components directory. However, when you start typing a component name in VSCode, it suggests using ./ because it assumes that you want to import a component relative to the current file.
So, to summarize:
- Use
@to import components from thesrcdirectory. - Use
./to import components relative to the current file.
Code example:
// Importing a component using @
import MyComponent from '@/Components/MyComponent.vue';
// Importing a component using ./ (relative to the current file)
import MyComponent from './MyComponent.vue';
