Nuxt 3 VS vite

- https://github.com/nuxt/framework: An intuitive framework for building web applications, built for the edge.

It uses Nuxi for Command line interface,

Note, the repo linked below, https://github.com/danielroe/nuxt-zero-js, was an experiment that I subsequently moved into Nuxt core: https://github.com/nuxt/framework/pull/7248. I plan to update it to test out per-route zero-JS via a route rule.

I asked this before on the Github discussion https://github.com/nuxt/framework/discussions/10073, but I haven't found an answer yet.

Also one I've reported a long time ago, that's still an issue today: If you start the Nuxt dev server without create the server/ folder, Nuxt isn't going to be able to read any of your server/api files. You have to create the folder and restart the dev server. Only then, it will start detecting your server files. This is an issue on both Windows and Linux.

Perhaps this thread can help you.

But there is a catch, nuxt.config does not allow functions in it. And it could be bother to mention this in every single page. Also, the later part is supposed to act like a Default or Fallback. Hmm.. Now what? Well, that where plugins system comes in. I can create a Plugin named title and add this logic there, which will be implemented on every page. Also, Nuxt devs mentioned this approach here.

I've found a matching issue with a solution I can use as a hotfix for now: https://github.com/nuxt/framework/issues/6648

https://github.com/nuxt/framework/issues/3587 (upstream Vue bug maybe?) https://github.com/nuxt/framework/issues/8634 https://github.com/nuxt/framework/issues/8611

This issue is where I started, and I noticed that in my project, setting the cookie header manually, or through a composable on the server-side doesn't actually set it in the browser (it doesn't show up in the developer tools). They've listed workarounds, but they're just that - the first link (when it comes back up, will show a messy composable you can write). Everything works fine with `axios` (instead of their built-in data fetching APIs), but the request seems to be executed twice on page load for some reason.

Without any adding any dependencies you can connect react props to raw css at runtime with nothing but css variables (aka "custom properties"). If you add CSS modules on top you don't have to worry about affecting the global scope so components created in this way can be truly modular and transferrable. I use this with vite.

Little confused as to why it has vite in it‘s name, it seems unrelated to https://vitejs.dev/

it says in their docs that they recommend Vite https://vitejs.dev/

it goes like this.

1. you create a repo folder, you cd into it.

2. you create a client template using vite which can be plain typescript, or uses frameworks such as react or vue, at https://vitejs.dev/guide/

3. you cd in that client directory, you npm install, then you npm run dev, it should show you that it works at localhost:5173

4. you follow the instructions on your url, you do npm install @web3modal/wagmi @wagmi/core @wagmi/connectors viem

5. you follow the further instructions.

> It seems like this is for npm or yarn to pull from a remote repository maintained by @wagmi for instance. But then what?

you install the wagmi modules, then you import them in your js code, those code can run upon being loaded or upon user actions such as button clicks

> Do I just symlink to the node_modules directory somehow? Use browserify? Or these days I'd use webpack or whatever the cool kids are using these days?

no need for those. browserify is old school way of transpiling commonjs modules into browser-compatible modules. webpack is similar. vite replaces both webpack and browserify. vite also uses esbuild and swc under the hood which replaces babel.

> I totally get how node package management works ... for NODE. But all these client-side JS projects these days have docs that are clearly for the client-side but the ES2015 module examples they show seem to leave out all instructions for how to actually get the files there, as if it's obvious.

pretty much similar actually. except on client-side, you have src and dist folders. when you run "npm run build" vite will compile the src dir into dist dir. the outputs are the static files that you can serve with any http server such as npx serve, or caddy, or anything really.

> What gives? And finally, what exactly does "browserify" do these days, since I think Node supports both ES modules and and CJS modules? I also see sometimes UMD universal modules

vite supports both ecmascript modules and commonjs modules. but these days you'll just want to stick with ecmascript which makes your code consistently use import and export syntax, and you get the extra benefit of it working well with your vscode intellisense.

> In short, I'm a bit confused how to use package management properly with browsers in 2024: https://modern-web.dev/guides/going-buildless/es-modules/

if people want plain js there is unpkg.com and esm.sh way, but the vite route is the best for you as it's recommended and tested by the providers of your modules.

> And finally, if you answer this, can you spare a word about typescript? Do we still need to use Babel and Webpack together to transpile it to JS, and minify and tree-shake, or what?

I recommend typescript, as it gives you better type-safety and better intellisense, but it really depends. If you're new to it, it can slow you down at first. But as your project grows you'll eventually see the value of it. In vite there are options to scaffold your project in pure js or ts.

First you have to know that all those react projects are created using Vite, and for each of them, you need change the vite.config.ts file by adding the following configuration:

CSSHooks works with React, Prereact, Solid.js, and Qwik, and we’re going to use Vite with the React configuration. First, let's create a project called css-hooks and install Vite:

JavaScript React Flowbite Tailwind Firebase - Auth, Database, and Hosting Vite

For this full-stack single-page app, you'll use Vite.js as your frontend build tool and the react-beautiful-dnd package for draggable items.

Vite

Imagine a shiny new React app — that’s what we’ll build! We’ll use a cool tool called Vite to set it up.

Vite is a blazing fast build tool that significantly improves the development experience for React applications. It leverages modern browser features such as native ES module imports to provide near-instantaneous development server startup and rapid hot module replacement (HMR) updates. This makes the development process incredibly smooth and efficient, especially for large-scale projects.
