Every .vue file becomes a route that gets automatically processed and rendered. Populate `./pages/index.vue` inside your project: ```html ``` And then run: ```bash npm start ``` Go to [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) ## Templates :point_right: We recommend to start directly with our cli [create-nuxt-app](https://github.com/nuxt-community/create-nuxt-app) for the latest updates. Or you can start by using one of our starter templates: - [starter](https://github.com/nuxt-community/starter-template): Basic Nuxt.js project template - [express](https://github.com/nuxt-community/express-template): Nuxt.js + Express - [koa](https://github.com/nuxt-community/koa-template): Nuxt.js + Koa - [adonuxt](https://github.com/nuxt-community/adonuxt-template): Nuxt.js + AdonisJS - [micro](https://github.com/nuxt-community/micro-template): Nuxt.js + Micro - [nuxtent](https://github.com/nuxt-community/nuxtent-template): Nuxt.js + Nuxtent module for content heavy sites ## Using nuxt.js programmatically ```js const { Nuxt, Builder } = require('nuxt') // Import and set nuxt.js options let config = require('./nuxt.config.js') config.dev = (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') let nuxt = new Nuxt(config) // Start build process (only in development) if (config.dev) { new Builder(nuxt).build() } // You can use nuxt.render(req, res) or nuxt.renderRoute(route, context) ``` Learn more: https://nuxtjs.org/api/nuxt ## Using nuxt.js as a middleware You might want to use your own server with your configurations, your API and everything awesome your created with. That's why you can use nuxt.js as a middleware. It's recommended to use it at the end of your middleware since it will handle the rendering of your web application and won't call next(). ```js app.use(nuxt.render) ``` Learn more: https://nuxtjs.org/api/nuxt-render ## Render a specific route This is mostly used for `nuxt generate` and test purposes but you might find another utility! ```js nuxt.renderRoute('/about', context) .then(function ({ html, error }) { // You can check error to know if your app displayed the error page for this route // Useful to set the correct status code if an error appended: if (error) { return res.status(error.statusCode || 500).send(html) } res.send(html) }) .catch(function (error) { // And error appended while rendering the route }) ``` Learn more: https://nuxtjs.org/api/nuxt-render-route ## Examples Please take a look at https://nuxtjs.org/examples or directly in https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt.js/tree/dev/examples. ## Production deployment To deploy, instead of running nuxt, you probably want to build ahead of time. Therefore, building and starting are separate commands: ```bash nuxt build nuxt start ``` For example, to deploy with [`now`](https://zeit.co/now) a `package.json` like follows is recommended: ```json { "name": "my-app", "dependencies": { "nuxt": "latest" }, "scripts": { "dev": "nuxt", "build": "nuxt build", "start": "nuxt start" } } ``` Then run `now` and enjoy! Note: we recommend putting `.nuxt` in `.npmignore` or `.gitignore`. ## Core team | [
