Vue <template> element should not have v-show directive

  • VUE_TEMPLATE_WITH_V_SHOW
  • Error
  • Medium
  • vue

This rule applies when a Vue <template> element has a v-show directive.

v-show is a directive for conditionally displaying an element but it does not support <template>. When v-show is used with <template>, it will be ignored and the contents of <template> will be displayed regardless of the v-show condition.
If you intended not to show the contents of <template> according to a specific value, you should specify the value as v-if instead of v-show.

      Only show me if flag is true!
    </template>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  data() {
    return {
      flag: false
