+# Serving Vue.js or React
+
+CAP is easily integrated with Vue.js, React, Svelte, or any other popular UI library. This guide explains how to set up a minimal project with a UI.
+
+<!-- [[toc]] -->
+
+## Example project
+
+The example here is built on a minimal CAP project:
+
+```sh
+cds init bookshop --nodejs --add tiny-sample && code bookshop
+```
+
+You can already start the CAP backend to watch for changes:
+```sh
+cds watch
+```
+
+**In a new terminal**, create a new Vue.js or React app in _app/catalog_:
+
+::: code-group
+```sh [Vue.js]
+cd app
+npm create vite@latest catalog -- --template vue
+```
+```sh [React]
+cd app
+npm create vite@latest catalog -- --template react
+```
+:::
+> Confirm "Install with npm and start now?" if asked.
+
+Now add a proxy to `app/catalog/vite.config.js`:
+
+::: code-group
+```js [Vue.js] {6-10}
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
+import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [vue()],
+  server: {
+    proxy: {
+      '/odata': 'http://localhost:4004'
+    }
+  }
+})
+
+```
+```js [React] {6-10}
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
+import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [react()],
+  server: {
+    proxy: {
+      '/odata': 'http://localhost:4004'
+    }
+  }
+})
+```
+
+:::
+
+Replace _src/App.vue_ (Vue.js) or _src/App.jsx_ (React) with a minimal example:
+
+::: code-group
+```vue [App.vue]
+<script setup>
+import { ref, onMounted } from 'vue'
+
+const books = ref([])
+
+onMounted(async () => {
+  const r = await fetch('/odata/v4/catalog/Books')
+  books.value = (await r.json()).value
+})
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <h1>Books</h1>
+  <table>
+    <tr v-for="b in books" :key="b.ID">
+      <td>
+        <span style="color:#111">{{ b.title }}</span>
+        <span style="color:#777"><i> by {{ b.author }}</i></span>
+      </td>
+    </tr>
+  </table>
+</template>
+```
+```jsx [App.jsx]
+import { useEffect, useState } from 'react'
+
+export default function App() {
+  const [books, setBooks] = useState([])
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    fetch('/odata/v4/catalog/Books')
+      .then(r => r.json())
+      .then(r => setBooks(r.value))
+  }, [])
+
+  return (
+    <>
+      <h1>Books</h1>
+      <table>
+        <tbody>
+          {books.map(b => (
+            <tr key={b.ID}>
+              <td>
+                <span style={{ color: '#111' }}>{b.title}</span>
+                <span style={{ color: '#777' }}><i> by {b.author}</i></span>
+              </td>
+            </tr>
+          ))}
+        </tbody>
+      </table>
+    </>
+  )
+}
+```
+:::
+
+Now simply open the running dev server on http://localhost:5173 to see the UI.
+
+::: details Dev server not accessible?
+
+The server might not be started yet, run this command:
+```sh
+npm run dev
+```
