## The Harbinger Arrives

November was a landmark month for the framework. We shipped **v3.11.0 (Harbinger)** with two components graduating from labs—VCalendar and VHotkey—alongside significant enhancements to date and time pickers that bring them in line with Material Design 3. The **VTimePicker input variant** and **VDatePicker control alignment** represent months of refinement work finally landing in a stable release. Beyond the framework, we made substantial progress on the **Vuetify CLI** with 37 commits laying the groundwork for v0 tooling. J-Sek continued his incredible contribution streak, authoring 14 PRs to the main framework and adding 7+ new templates to Snips. The ecosystem is firing on all cylinders.

November's framework work centered on date/time picker improvements and component polish. J-Sek delivered an outstanding 14 PRs, driving many of the enhancements below.

### Date & Time Picker Enhancements

The date and time picker components received significant attention this month, bringing them closer to Material Design 3 specifications and adding long-requested features.

**VTimePicker Input Variant**

A new input variant allows users to type time values directly without using the dial interface—perfect for power users and keyboard-first workflows.

![VTimePicker Input Variant](https://cdn.vuetifyjs.com/docs/images/blog/november-2025-update/vtimepicker-input.png "VTimePicker Input Variant")

**VDatePicker MD3 Controls**

Control variants have been aligned with Material Design 3, providing a more polished and consistent appearance.

## Vuetify MCP: Continued Evolution

<AppFigure :src="mcplogo" alt="Vuetify MCP logo" width="200" height="auto" class="mx-auto my-4" title="Vuetify MCP Logo" />

November brought four releases to the Vuetify MCP server (v0.2.0 through v0.2.3), continuing to refine the AI-powered development experience.

### What's New

**Stability Improvements**: Multiple releases focused on reliability and edge case handling for the HTTP transport introduced in October.

**Documentation Enhancements**: Improved tool descriptions and response formatting for better AI assistant integration.

### Getting Started

To use the hosted MCP server with Claude Desktop or other MCP clients:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vuetify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.vuetifyjs.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

## Vuetify0: Progress Update

<AppFigure :src="zerologo" alt="Vuetify0 logo" width="200" height="auto" class="mx-auto my-4" title="Vuetify0 Logo" />

November was our most active month yet for Vuetify0, with 109 commits and 5 releases (v0.0.10 through v0.0.14). The focus was on performance optimization and type safety improvements.

![Vuetify0 Type Safety](https://cdn.vuetifyjs.com/docs/images/blog/november-2025-update/v0.png "Vuetify0 Type Safety")

**Performance Optimizations**

We implemented deferred reindexing for registry unregister operations, significantly improving performance when components mount and unmount rapidly.

**Type Safety Improvements**

The `RegistryTicket.value` is now generic, providing better type inference and IntelliSense support when working with registered items.

```ts
import { useRegistry } from '@vuetify/v0'
import type { RegistryTicket } from '@vuetify/v0'

interface User {
  name: string
  email: string
}

// Value type flows through the registry
const registry = useRegistry<RegistryTicket<User>>()

const ticket = registry.register({
  id: 'user-1',
  value: { name: 'John', email: 'john@vuetifyjs.com' }
})

// ticket.value is typed as User
console.log(ticket.value.name) // ✓ TypeScript knows this is a string
```

December will focus on expanding the component library and preparing integration paths with the main Vuetify framework.

* [Vuetify0 Documentation](https://0.vuetifyjs.com/)
* [Performance optimization PR#48](https://github.com/vuetifyjs/0/pull/48)
* [Type safety PR#53](https://github.com/vuetifyjs/0/pull/53)

</details>

## What's Next{ .mt-4 }

December will see continued refinement of v3.11.x as we stabilize the new features and address community feedback. Work on VCommandPalette progresses toward an initial labs release, and we're expanding the v0 library with additional headless primitives.

The Vuetify CLI is approaching its first public release, which will streamline project setup and component generation for both Vuetify 3 and the upcoming v0-based workflows. We're also planning end-of-year webinars covering the v3.11 release highlights and a preview of what's coming in 2026.

Thank you for being part of the Vuetify community. See you in December!
