# Installation Guide

# Clone Project

Prerequisites

  • Node.js - v18.0.0 or newer
  • Text editor - We recommend Visual Studio Code with the Volar Extension
  • Terminal - In order to run Nuxt commands
Additional notes for an optimal setup:
  • Node.js: Make sure to use an even numbered version (18, 20, etc)
  • Nuxtr: Install the community-developed Nuxtr extension
  • Volar: Either enable Take Over Mode (recommended) or add the TypeScript Vue Plugin

If you have enabled Take Over Mode or installed the TypeScript Vue Plugin (Volar), you can disable generating the shim for *.vue files in your nuxt.config.ts file:

nuxt.config.ts

export default defineNuxtConfig({
    typescript: {
        shim: false
    }
})

Open a terminal (if you're using Visual Studio Code (opens new window), you can open an integrated terminal (opens new window)) and use the following command to create a clone the project:

git clone project-repository

Open your project folder in Visual Studio Code: Terminal

code <project-name>

Or change directory into your new project from your terminal:

cd <project-name>

Install the dependencies:

npm install

# Development Server

Now you'll be able to start your Nuxt app in development mode:

npm run dev -o

TIP

Well done! A browser window should automatically open for http://localhost:3000.

For more info, explore the official documentation of nuxt.js : https://nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/installation (opens new window)
