@Pearyman 你的问题和我当时遇到的一样，当时我是想全局引入一个vueparticle的组件，你是想找vuepress的入口文件哇，想全局引入组件是吧，建议你使用vuepress1.x的文档，看这篇教程 https://vuepress.vuejs.org/zh/guide/custom-themes.html#应用配置

import Vue from 'vue';
import AppTest from './components/AppTest';

export default (({
  Vue
}) => {
  Vue.use(AppTest)
});

Ummmm I think you might misunderstand me.

Some vuepress plugins actually need a browser environment, which is the reason for the error you encounted:

require('element-ui') // Error: window is not defined

So if a module cannot be “required” directly from Node, it cannot be used in vuepress, unless it is imported in the mounted hook like this:

export default {
  mounted() {
    import('element-ui').then(/* things to do next */)
  }
}
