How do I set up authentication in a Nuxt.js app using an API?

To set up authentication in a Nuxt.js app, you can use the Axios module to communicate with your API. First, install Axios if you haven't already.

What steps do I need to follow after installing Axios?

After installing Axios, create a plugin for it in your Nuxt app. Then, set up your API endpoints for login and registration.

Can you show me an example of the login API call?

Sure! You can create a method in your store or a service file that looks like this: async login(credentials) { return await this.$axios.$post('/api/login', credentials); }.

How do I handle the authentication state in my app?

You can use Vuex to manage the authentication state. Store the user data and token in the Vuex store and use middleware to protect routes.
