# Gitignore file

A `.gitignore` file specifies intentionally untracked files that Git should ignore. Learn more about it on [the git documentation](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore).

We recommand to have a `.gitignore` with **at least** this lines inside:

```bash [.gitignore]
# Nuxt dev/build outputs
.output
.nuxt
# Node dependencies
node_modules
# System files
*.log
```
