    <StepHikeCompact.Details title="Create a Vue app">

    Create a Vue app using the `npm init` command.

    </StepHikeCompact.Details>

    <StepHikeCompact.Code>

      ```sh Terminal
      npm init vue@latest my-app
      ```

    </StepHikeCompact.Code>

  </StepHikeCompact.Step>

  <StepHikeCompact.Step step={3}>
    <StepHikeCompact.Details title="Install the Supabase client library">

    The fastest way to get started is to use the `supabase-js` client library which provides a convenient interface for working with Supabase from a Vue app.

    Navigate to the Vue app and install `supabase-js`.

    </StepHikeCompact.Details>

    <StepHikeCompact.Code>

      ```bash Terminal
      cd my-app && npm install @supabase/supabase-js
      ```

    </StepHikeCompact.Code>

  </StepHikeCompact.Step>

  <StepHikeCompact.Step step={4}>
    <StepHikeCompact.Details title="Create the Supabase client">

    Create a `/src/lib` directory in your Vue app, create a file called `supabaseClient.js` and add the following code to initialize the Supabase client with your project URL and public API (anon) key:

    <ProjectConfigVariables variable="url" />
    <ProjectConfigVariables variable="anonKey" />

    </StepHikeCompact.Details>

    <StepHikeCompact.Code>

      ```js src/lib/supabaseClient.js
        import { createClient } from '@supabase/supabase-js'

        export const supabase = createClient('https://<project>.supabase.co', '<your-anon-key>')
      ```

    </StepHikeCompact.Code>

  </StepHikeCompact.Step>

  <StepHikeCompact.Step step={5}>
    <StepHikeCompact.Details title="Query data from the app">

    Replace the existing content in your `App.vue` file with the following code.

    </StepHikeCompact.Details>
    <StepHikeCompact.Code>


      ```vue src/App.vue
        <script setup>
        import { ref, onMounted } from 'vue'
        import { supabase } from './lib/supabaseClient'

        const countries = ref([])

        async function getCountries() {
          const { data } = await supabase.from('countries').select()
          countries.value = data
        }

        onMounted(() => {
          getCountries()
        })
        </script>

        <template>
          <ul>
            <li v-for="country in countries" :key="country.id">{{ country.name }}</li>
          </ul>
        </template>
      ```

    </StepHikeCompact.Code>

  </StepHikeCompact.Step>

  <StepHikeCompact.Step step={6}>
    <StepHikeCompact.Details title="Start the app">

    Start the app and go to http://localhost:5173 in a browser and you should see the list of countries.

    </StepHikeCompact.Details>

    <StepHikeCompact.Code>

      ```bash Terminal
      npm run dev
      ```
