Deploy Nuxt to GitHub Pages

Nuxt supports deploying to GitHub Pages with minimal configuration.

GitHub Pages only support static sites, Nuxt will pre-render your application to static HTML files.

If you are not using a custom domain, you need to set NUXT_APP_BASE_URL to your repository-slug for your build step.Example: https://<user>.github.io/<repository>/: NUXT_APP_BASE_URL=/<repository>/ npx nuxt build --preset github_pages

Setup

Follow the steps to create a GitHub Pages site.

Deployment

Here is an example GitHub Actions workflow to deploy your site to GitHub Pages using the github_pages preset:

    # Add a dependency to the build job
