vue-style-loader is a Webpack loader specifically designed for Vue.js single-file components. It injects CSS into the document during runtime using <style> tags, enabling hot-reloading and dynamic styling updates without full page refreshes. It also manages scoped CSS, preventing style conflicts between components. This loader is generally paired with css-loader and vue-loader to effectively manage and inject component-specific styles for a seamless development experience.
Vue-style-loader downloads show variability. From March 2024 to August 2025, monthly downloads ranged from 5.4 to 7.8 million. A slight decrease exists from July (7.3M) to August of 2025 (6.4M). The current month of September 2025 is incomplete and shows significantly lower downloads (1.7M).
