Create FirstComponent.vue and import it into App.js

Create the new component into src/components/ components folder.the component name is FirstComponent.vue and import into App.js file:

App.js

    <FirstComponent />

export default {
  name: "App",

  -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
  text-align: center;
  color: #2c3e50;
  margin-top: 60px;

List group components are flexible and powerful for displaying the series of content. We are using the List group component to create our list in BootstrapVue.List Group items can be modified to support just about any content within.

<template>
  <div class="hello">
    <b-container>
      <b-row>
        <b-col md="4">
            <b-list-group>
                <b-list-group-item>SortoutCode</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item>Aguidehub</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item>Infinitbility</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item>Test</b-list-group-item>
            </b-list-group>
        </b-col>
      </b-row>
    </b-container>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: "FirstComponent",
};
</script>

Add contextual variants props for style to item from listing

Add the contextual variants to style the item from the list. you have to pass the variant=“primary” props to the <b-list-group-item> to make it.To set contextual variants="" to style the item of Bootstrap listing. let’s see the example of variants to items from the listing.

<template>
  <div class="hello">
    <b-container>
      <b-row>
        <b-col md="4">
            <b-list-group>
                <b-list-group-item variant="primary">SortoutCode</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item variant="secondary">Aguidehub</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item variant="success">Infinitbility</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item variant="dark">Test</b-list-group-item>
            </b-list-group>
        </b-col>
      </b-row>
    </b-container>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: "FirstComponent",
};
</script>

Output

Contextual variants also work with the actional link to items of listing. In the actionable item, it shows an extra hover effect to BootstrapVue.And on the click, it set it to indicate an active selection on a contextual list group item. let’s see the example of variants to an item from the listing.

<template>
  <div class="hello">
    <b-container>
      <b-row>
        <b-col md="4">
            <b-list-group>
                <b-list-group-item href="#" variant="success">SortoutCode</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item href="#" variant="success">Aguidehub</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item href="#" variant="success">Infinitbility</b-list-group-item>
                <b-list-group-item href="#" variant="success">Test</b-list-group-item>
            </b-list-group>
        </b-col>
      </b-row>
