Quick Start

This package has two major exports:

• <SplitPane>: is used to create resizable panels within a layout. It supports both vertical and horizontal splits, allowing users to adjust the size of different sections of a page.
• <Pane>: is a part of the SplitPane layout system, representing an individual resizable panel. It supports both vertical and horizontal splits and allows for flexible sizing and styling.

To quickly start using @marsio/vue-split-pane, follow the steps below:

Step 1: Installation

First, you need to install the package. Run the following command in your project directory:

npm install @marsio/vue-split-pane

Or Hybrid

<template>
  <SplitPane split="vertical">
    <Pane initialSize="200px">You can use a Pane component</Pane>
    <div>or you can use a plain old div</div>
    <Pane initialSize="25%" minSize="10%" maxSize="500px">Using a Pane allows you to specify any constraints directly</Pane>
  </SplitPane>    
</template>

<script>
import SplitPane, { Pane } from '@marsio/vue-split-pane';

export default {
  components: {
    SplitPane,
    Pane
  }
}
</script>

Or Nested

      <Pane/>
    </SplitPane>
    <Pane/>
  </SplitPane>  
</template>
