wavesurfer.js VS Nuxt.js

Actually I want to modify the Expanse theme from Archetype Themes in a way that its possible to implement an audio player (using Wavesurfer JS library) which keeps playing when a new page is loaded. So there cant be an entire page reload, I need to modify the theme so the main content is fetched instead.

I'm trying to get a basic version of wavesurfer working. I followed the tutorial from this youtube video and downloaded the same code from the github. The buttons appear, but the waveform doesn't appear.

Could be this though: https://github.com/katspaugh/wavesurfer.js

Thanks so much! The timeline actually isn't as complicated as it may look. There are lots of really awesome projects to take inspiration from (e.g. WavesurferJS). The one thing I wanted to point out is that the component was much easier to build in Svelte than in Vue. When we had the timeline component in Vue it used dependencies from other projects (because they were readily available). With Svelte there was nothing to install from NPM so we built it from scratch... and it was actually a lot of fun! It also scales really nicely for larger projects!

wavesufer.js

According to Node Package Manager (NPM), Next.js has about 3.9 million weekly downloads while Nuxt.js has about 438,000. Although Next.js has a significantly higher number of weekly downloads, Nuxt.js still has a robust number of users. We can conclude that both frameworks are relevant and will stand the test of time.

Nuxt team themselves pointed that out [in first release](https://www.npmjs.com/package/nuxt/v/0.0.1) as well as you can see that statement in [Nuxt's wikipedia article](https://cdn.domin.pro/K2Qa). I completely agree with how Nuxt is better for an amount of features.

Node is basically back-end Javascript. While powerful alone, almost exclusively you will use a back-end framework like Next.js or Gatsby when using React, and then maybe Nuxt or Gridsome in Vue.

Both Vue.js and React have their own set of tools and libraries to help developers build and maintain their applications. Vue.js has Vue CLI and Nuxt.js, while React has Create React App and Next.js.

Nuxt.js is a free and open-source JavaScript framework based on Vue.js that helps you develop modern web applications using SSR (server-side rendering) which provides a faster load, better SEO (search engine optimization), and better caching capabilities.

We made a LiveChat Next.js App template. Using Next.js as a foundation for the project, we have a front-end app with built-in routing, Server Side Rendering (SSR), and Server Side Generation (SSG) built with React, but on top of that, ready-to-use API routes built in the form of Serverless functions. If you prefer Vue.js or Svelte, you can choose similar frameworks, like Nuxt.js and SvelteKit.

Not oc, but maybe give Nuxt a look?

Vue's docs are some of the best I've ever read. Nuxt and Craft are pretty great too. I especially like how Craft's docs are bifurcated into the docs which give you the 20/80 + code snippets, and the class reference, which is complete documentation of every method, type, param, etc of the platform.

Nuxt - the Vue alternative to NextJS - supports both static site generation and SSR.
