# `<NuxtLayout>`
You can use `<NuxtLayout />` component to activate `default` layout on `app.vue` or `error.vue`.
```vue [/app.vue]
<template>
<NuxtLayout>
some page content
</NuxtLayout>
</template>
```
`<NuxtLayout />` can be used to override `default` layout on `app.vue`, `error.vue` or even page components found in the `/pages` directory.
## `name` prop
`<NuxtLayout />` component accepts the `name` prop, which you can pass to use a non-default layout, where `name` can be a static string, reactive reference or a computed property. It **must** match the name of the corresponding layout file in the `/layouts` directory.
### Examples
```vue [pages/index.vue]
<template>
<NuxtLayout :name="layout">
<NuxtPage />
</NuxtLayout>
</template>
<script setup>
// layouts/custom.vue
const layout = 'custom'
</script>
```
::alert{icon=👉}
Please note the layout name is normalized to kebab-case, so if your layout file is named `errorLayout.vue`, it will become `error-layout` when passed as a `name` property to `<NuxtLayout />`.
::
```vue [/error.vue]
<template>
<NuxtLayout name="error-layout">
<NuxtPage />
</NuxtLayout>
</template>
```
## Layout and Transition
`<NuxtLayout />` renders incoming content via `<slot />`, which is then wrapped around Vues `<Transition />` component to activate layout transition. For this to work as expected, it is recommended that `<NuxtLayout />` is **not** the root element of the page component.
```vue [pages/index.vue]
<template>
<div>
<NuxtLayout name="custom">
<template #header> Some header template content. </template>
</NuxtLayout>
</div>
</template>
```
