Learn when to use Nuxt 3 server middleware versus plugins. This guide compares execution timing, performance trade-offs, and provides a concrete implementation for request-level authentication.
Design pattern for Nuxt 3 server routes with Nitro, covering trust boundaries, runtimeConfig separation, operational checks, and when to scale beyond co-location.
A concise architecture note for running Nuxt 3 on Nitro in serverless environments: minimal design, trust boundaries, operational checks, failure modes, and redesign triggers.
Nuxt routeRules in nuxt.config let you control SSR, SSG, CSR, SWR, and ISR per route without editing page components. Learn the mechanism, a worked example, and verification steps.
Nuxt 3 route rules let you declare prerendering, SSR, and caching per route in nuxt.config.ts. Learn how to choose a strategy, verify the build output, and avoid stale-cache surprises.
Nuxt routeRules let you assign different rendering strategies to individual routes via glob patterns in nuxt.config, enabling hybrid rendering within one app.
Nuxt 3's Nitro server engine provides a unified runtime for deploying across serverless platforms like Vercel and Cloudflare Workers, with a single entry point and clean configuration boundaries.
