Hands-on Nuxt.js Web Development

By: Lau Tiam Kok

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.

Integrating ESLint and Prettier

Prettier and ESLint complement each other. We can integrate Prettier into the workflow with ESLint. This allows you to use Prettier for formatting your code while letting ESLint focus on linting your code. So, to integrate them, first, we will need the eslint-plugin-prettier plugin from ESLint to use Prettier "under" ESLint. Then we can use Prettier to add rules for formatting the code as usual.

However, ESLint contains rules that are formatting-related that can conflict with Prettier, such as arrow-parens and space-before-function-paren, and that can cause some issues when using them together. To resolve these conflicting issues, we will need the eslint-config-prettier config for turning off the ESLint rules that conflict with Prettier. Let's take a look at how you can achieve that in the following steps:

  1. Install eslint-plugin-prettier and eslint-config-prettier via npm:
$ npm i eslint-plugin-prettier --save-dev
$ npm i eslint-config-prettier...
