<!--devtools-cmd-->
```bash [Terminal]
npx nuxi devtools <COMMAND> [ROOTDIR] [--cwd=<directory>]
```
<!--/devtools-cmd-->

Running `nuxi devtools enable` will install the Nuxt DevTools globally, and also enable it within the particular project you are using. It is saved as a preference in your user-level `.nuxtrc`. If you want to remove devtools support for a particular project, you can run `nuxi devtools disable`.
