SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a structured set of patterns to build robust Nuxt 3 applications with Nitro API backends, reducing boilerplate and runtime errors.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Validation-first API patterns: use h3 and Standard Schema to validate requests, with zero-boilerplate typings.
  • Type inference for endpoints: let Nitro infer types from handlers to keep front- and back-end in sync.
  • Auth and middleware patterns: server middleware and Nuxt client helpers for secure routes and role-based access.
  • SSR, data fetching, and real-time: patterns for SSR data loading, SSG-like caching, and SSE/real-time flows.
  • Practical examples: see validation.md, fetch-patterns.md, auth-patterns.md, sse.md, nitro-tasks.md for concrete usage.

Quick Start

Install the Nuxt-Nitro-API skill and start applying the documented patterns in your project. Then follow the example files under the repository to integrate common patterns.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build type-safe Nuxt 3 APIs with Nitro and TypeScript?▼

To build type-safe Nuxt 3 APIs with Nitro, apply pattern-driven handlers that let Nitro infer types directly from the backend, ensuring front-end and back-end synchronization while reducing runtime errors.

What is the best way to validate Nitro API requests in Nuxt 3?▼

The best way to validate Nitro API requests is using a validation-first pattern with h3 and Standard Schema, which provides zero-boilerplate typings and enforces type inference across your Nuxt project endpoints.

How do I implement authentication and middleware in a Nuxt Nitro project?▼

You can implement authentication in a Nuxt Nitro project by applying server middleware and Nuxt client helper patterns, enabling secure routes and role-based access control across your application architecture.

Can I use Server-Sent Events for real-time data flows in Nuxt 3?▼

Yes, you can achieve real-time data flows in Nuxt 3 by applying Server-Sent Events (SSE) patterns within your Nitro API backend, facilitating real-time capabilities alongside standard SSR data loading and SSG-like caching.

Does this approach require manual type synchronization between Nuxt and Nitro?▼

No manual type synchronization is required. The patterns enforce type inference from Nitro handlers directly to the Nuxt front-end, utilizing Zod validation and Standard Schema to maintain type safety without boilerplate.
