Nuxt
Vue-based framework for building server-rendered, static and hybrid websites and web apps.
Nuxt is a framework built on Vue and the Nitro server engine, for server-rendered, static and hybrid sites and apps. Rendering is chosen per route with route rules, so one project can serve some pages from a server, cache others for a period and generate the rest as static files. The build either produces a server entry file for Node hosting or a folder of static assets, depending on the build command.
NuxtLabs, the company that stewards Nuxt and Nitro, joined Vercel in 2025. Vercel’s announcement says the project stays MIT-licensed with open governance.
Worth knowing
Server output needs a Node process that keeps running, while static output needs no server. Content management and internationalization come from separate modules rather than the core. The starter gallery mixes free, freemium and paid templates without marking which ones are official. The deployment guide describes both output types.
