# Getting Started
Set up the Cocoar Design System in your Vue 3 project in a few steps.

```bash
pnpm add @cocoar/vue-ui

## 2. Import Fonts & Styles
Import fonts and styles in your app's entry point. Fonts are self-hosted via `@fontsource` — no external CDN needed.
```ts
// main.ts
import '@cocoar/vue-ui/fonts'; // Poppins + Inter (self-hosted)
import '@cocoar/vue-ui/styles'; // Design tokens + component styles
```
