Nuxt.js (we will call it Nuxt in this book) is a progressive web framework built on top of Vue.js (we will call it Vue in this book) for server-side rendering (SSR). With Nuxt and Vue, building universal and static-generated applications is easier than ever before. This book will help you get up and running with the fundamentals of Nuxt and how to integrate it with the latest version of Vue, enabling you to build an entire project, including authentication, testing, and deployment, with Nuxt and Vue.js. You will explore Nuxt's directory structure and get your Nuxt project created by using Nuxt's pages, views, routing, and Vue components, and by writing plugins, modules, a Vuex store, and middlewares. Furthermore, you will learn how to create Node.js and PHP APIs or data platforms from scratch by using Koa.js (we will call it Koa in this book), PHP Standards Recommendations (PSRs), MongoDB, and MySQL, as well as using WordPress as a headless CMS and REST API. You'll also use Keystone.js as a GraphQL API to complement Nuxt. You will learn how to create a real-time Nuxt application and API with Socket.IO and RethinkDB, and finally generate static sites with Nuxt and streaming resources (images and videos) from a remote API, whether a REST API or a GraphQL API.

Overview of this book
Nuxt.js is a progressive web framework built on top of Vue.js for server-side rendering (SSR). With Nuxt.js and Vue.js, building universal and static-generated applications from scratch is now easier than ever before.
This book starts with an introduction to Nuxt.js and its constituents as a universal SSR framework. You'll learn the fundamentals of Nuxt.js and find out how you can integrate it with the latest version of Vue.js. You'll then explore the Nuxt.js directory structure and set up your first Nuxt.js project using pages, views, routing, and Vue components. With the help of practical examples, you'll learn how to connect your Nuxt.js application with the backend API by exploring your Nuxt.js application’s configuration, plugins, modules, middleware, and the Vuex store. The book shows you how you can turn your Nuxt.js application into a universal or static-generated application by working with REST and GraphQL APIs over HTTP requests. Finally, you'll get to grips with security techniques using authorization, package your Nuxt.js application for testing, and deploy it to production.
By the end of this web development book, you'll have developed a solid understanding of using Nuxt.js for your projects and be able to build secure, end-to-end tested, and scalable web applications with SSR, data handling, and SEO capabilities.
