run npm install jquery --save then on your root component  place this global jQuery   require     node modules jquery dist jquery js    var     global jQuery   Do not forget to export it to enable you to use it with other components export default     name   App     components

Option  1  Use ProvidePlugin  Add the ProvidePlugin to the plugins array in both build webpack dev conf js and build webpack prod conf js so that jQuery becomes globally available to all your modules   plugins                 new webpack ProvidePlugin           jquery       jquery   jquery        window jQuery    jquery       jQuery   jquery           Option  2  Use Expose Loader module for webpack  As  TremendusApps suggests in his answer  add the Expose Loader package   npm install expose-loader --save-dev   Use in your entry point main js like this   import  expose   expose jQuery jquery

import jquery within  lt script gt  tag in your vue file   I think this is the easiest way   For example    lt script gt  import   from  jquery    export default       name   welcome       mounted  function             window setTimeout function                     logo   css  opacity   0                 1000             lt  script gt

Step 1 We place ourselves with the terminal in the folder of our project and install JQuery through npm or yarn   npm install jquery --save   Step 2 Within our file where we want to use JQuery  for example app js  resources js app js   in the script section we include the following code      We import JQuery const     require  jquery       We declare it globally window            You can use it now    body   css  background-color    orange        Here you can add the code for different plugins

You need to use either the globals loader or expose loader to ensure that webpack includes the jQuery lib in your source code output and so that it doesn t throw errors when your use   in your components      example with expose loader  npm i --save-dev expose-loader     somewhere  import  require  this jquery  but pipe it through the expose loader require  expose   expose jQuery jquery     If you prefer  you can import  require  it directly within your webpack config as a point of entry  so I understand  but I don t have an example of this to hand  Alternatively  you can use the globals loader like this   https   www npmjs com package globals-loader
