Nuxt is a meta framework for Vue. Learn more about Nuxt at https://nuxt.com. This guide is accurate as of Nuxt 3.17.

Checklist

• Use SSG by setting ssr: false. Tauri doesn’t support server based solutions.
• Use default ../dist as frontendDist in tauri.conf.json.
• Compile using nuxi build.
• (Optional): Disable telemetry by setting telemetry: false in nuxt.config.ts.

Example Configuration

1. Update Tauri configuration

   npm

   tauri.conf.json

   {
     "build": {
       "beforeDevCommand": "npm run dev",
       "beforeBuildCommand": "npm run build",
       "devUrl": "http://localhost:3000",
       "frontendDist": "../dist"
     }
   }

   yarn

   tauri.conf.json

   {
     "build": {
       "beforeDevCommand": "yarn dev",
       "beforeBuildCommand": "yarn build",
       "devUrl": "http://localhost:3000",
       "frontendDist": "../dist"
     }
   }

   pnpm

   tauri.conf.json

   {
     "build": {
       "beforeDevCommand": "pnpm dev",
       "beforeBuildCommand": "pnpm build",
       "devUrl": "http://localhost:3000",
       "frontendDist": "../dist"
     }
   }

   deno

   tauri.conf.json

   {
     "build": {
       "beforeDevCommand": "deno task dev",
       "beforeBuildCommand": "deno task generate",
       "devUrl": "http://localhost:3000",
       "frontendDist": "../dist"
     }
   }

2. Update Nuxt configuration

   export default defineNuxtConfig({
     compatibilityDate: '2025-05-15',
     // (optional) Enable the Nuxt devtools
     devtools: { enabled: true },
     // Enable SSG
     ssr: false,
     // Enables the development server to be discoverable by other devices when running on iOS physical devices
     devServer: {
       host: '0'
     },
     vite: {
       // Better support for Tauri CLI output
       clearScreen: false,
       // Enable environment variables
       // Additional environment variables can be found at
       // https://v2.tauri.app/reference/environment-variables/
       envPrefix: ['VITE_', 'TAURI_'],
       server: {
         // Tauri requires a consistent port
         strictPort: true,
       },
     },
     // Avoids error [unhandledRejection] EMFILE: too many open files, watch
     ignore: [
       '**/src-tauri/**'
     ],
   });
