Why is Bulma Overriding My Vue 3 Component CSS?

Using a CSS framework like Bulma can greatly enhance the styling of your Vue.js applications. However, if you find that Bulma's styles are overriding your component-specific CSS, you might be grappling with a common issue faced by many developers. In this post, we’ll explore why this is happening and how you can resolve it effectively.

Understanding the Problem

When you use Bulma within a Vue 3 project, it is not uncommon to encounter situations where Bulma's CSS rules overshadow your custom component styles. This typically occurs due to the order of CSS imports. In a Vue application, styles are injected into the DOM in the order they are imported or included.

For example, if Bulma’s CSS is loaded after your component styles, it may override them. Here’s a breakdown of a typical scenario:

You have a Vue component with custom styles defined in its <style> tag.

Bulma's CSS is imported later, affecting the appearance of your components.

The result: your component styles can be overridden by Bulma's more general or specific rules.

Example Structure

Consider the following code snippets

In this scenario, the componentSpecificClass could easily be overridden by Bulma if the styles conflict.

The Solution

To ensure your component styles take precedence over Bulma’s CSS, you can adjust the order in which the styles are imported. Here's how:

1. Adjust the Import Order

The solution involves moving the Bulma import to the beginning of your main.js file. This adjustment will load your custom styles first, preserving their priority.

2. Use import Instead of require

The second critical change is to replace require with import. The import statement is more suitable for modern JavaScript and works better with Webpack’s build process, improving the structure of your generated CSS.

Benefits of This Approach

Cleaner Code: By organizing your imports, you maintain a clearer structure in your main.js file.

CSS Priority Control: This change effectively ensures that your styles are prioritized over Bulma’s, preventing unwanted overrides without needing to make your selectors more specific or resorting to SASS overrides.

Conclusion

In summary, if you're facing CSS override issues in your Vue 3 project while using Bulma, remember to adjust the import order and use import instead of require. These straightforward steps will help you maintain control over your component styles and ensure that your vision for your application's design is realized. Happy coding!
