<dt class="col-sm-6">Text with custom color:</dt>
<dd class="col-sm-6" v-mdb-dummy:text="{ color: 'red' }"></dd>
</dl>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbDummy } from "mdb-vue-dummy";
export default {
directives: {
mdbDummy,
},
};
</script>
<script setup lang="ts">
import { mdbDummy as vMdbDummy } from "mdb-vue-dummy";
</script>
Image

adding v-mdb-dummy:img to element or simple
v-mdb-dummy to an img element.
Default
By default Dummy Image is created with size 150x150px and grey background
<template>
<img v-mdb-dummy />
</template>
<script>
import { mdbDummy } from "mdb-vue-dummy";
export default {
directives: {
mdbDummy,
},
};
</script>
<script setup lang="ts">
