Key features
Register reactive title, meta, and link tags with useHead
The Vue integration exposes useHead while the core handles deduplication, sorting, and tag merging as application state changes.
Define SEO metadata through the flat useSeoMeta API
useSeoMeta provides a flat API for SEO-oriented metadata including Open Graph fields and related meta tags.
Update head output during streaming SSR
Unhead v3 highlights streaming SSR support so head tags can be pushed as suspense boundaries resolve.

Best fit
Fits Vue SSR and SPA projects that need one head-management model
It is useful for route- and component-level titles, canonical links, social metadata, and scripts that should behave consistently through server rendering and hydration.

Try it in 3 steps
- 1
Install pinned Unhead Vue 3.4.2 with Vue 3.5.18
Create an isolated npm project with the reviewed Vue integration and the minimum supported Vue peer version.
demo=$(mktemp -d "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/unhead.XXXXXX") && cd "$demo" && npm init -y >/dev/null && npm install --save-exact @unhead/vue@3.4.2 vue@3.5.18 - 2
Verify package versions
Require Unhead Vue and Vue to resolve to the reviewed versions.
test "$(node -e "const fs=require('fs');const v=p=>JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(p)).version;console.log(v('node_modules/@unhead/vue/package.json')+'/'+v('node_modules/vue/package.json'))")" = '3.4.2/3.5.18' - 3
Check representative head APIs
Verify the primary head, SEO, and script-management APIs without starting a browser.
test "$(node --input-type=module -e "import * as U from '@unhead/vue';console.log(['createUnhead','useHead','useSeoMeta','useScript'].every(k=>k in U))")" = 'true'
