v-else-if Directive in Vue.js

Last Updated : 15 Jul, 2025

v-else-if directive is a Vue.js directive used to toggle the display CSS property of an element depending on a condition when the if condition is not satisfied. First, we will create a div element with id as app and let's apply the v-else-if directive to an element with data. Now we will create this data by initializing a Vue instance with the data attribute containing the value.

Syntax:

v-else-if="data"

Parameters: This function accepts a single parameter which is data or a condition. Example 1: This example uses Vue.js to show an element with v-else-if using arithmetic conditions.
