Nuxt

This is an example of how to set up a Nuxt application or static site to deploy on Kinsta’s Static Site Hosting services from a GitHub repository.

Nuxt is an open-source web development framework that allows you to build server-side rendered Vue applications and static sites. More information is available on the Nuxt website.

You can also use this quick start template on Kinsta’s Application Hosting without any additional configuration. If you use Application Hosting, theStart command can be left blank for the web process as Kinsta automatically detects the required command during the first deployment.

During the deployment process, Kinsta automatically installs dependencies defined in your package.json file.

1. Log in to GitHub and create a new repository from this template (Use this template > Create a new repository): Kinsta – Hello World – NuxtJS.
2. In MyKinsta, add a static site with the Hello World – NuxtJS repository and the following Build settings:
   • Build command: npm run generate
   • Node version: 18.16.0
   • Publish directory: .output/public
3. The site is available as soon as the build finishes, and the Hello world page loads at your site’s URL.

Deployment Lifecycle

Whenever a deployment is initiated (through creating an application or re-deploying due to an incoming commit) the npm build command is run, followed by the npm start command.
