Sometimes, we want to change the port number of the dev server of the Vue-CLI project.

In this article, we’ll look at how to change the port number of the dev server of the Vue-CLI project.

Change the Port Number in Vue-CLI Project

We can change the port number of the dev server runs on by adding the port property into vue.config.js in the root folder.

For instance, we can write:

module.exports = {  
  // ...  
  devServer: {  
    open: process.platform === 'darwin',  
    host: '0.0.0.0',  
    port: 8080,  
    https: false,  
    hotOnly: false,  
  },  
  // ...  
}

to add the port property and set it to 8080.

Now the Vue-CLI dev server will run on port 8080.

We can also change the scripts.serve property in package.json to add the port to the serve command.

For instance, we can write:

vue-cli-service serve --port 8080

to set the port of the Vue-CLI dev server to 8080.

Conclusion

We can change the port number of the dev server runs on by adding the port property into vue.config.js in the root folder.
