How do I deploy a Nuxt.js application with SSR?

To deploy a Nuxt.js application with server-side rendering, you can use platforms like Vercel, Heroku, or DigitalOcean. First, ensure your app is built for production using nuxt build. Then, you can set up your server to handle the SSR.

What are the steps to set it up on Heroku?

1. Create a Heroku account and install the Heroku CLI. 2. Initialize a Git repository in your Nuxt.js project. 3. Create a new Heroku app using heroku create. 4. Set the buildpack to Node.js with heroku buildpacks:set heroku/nodejs. 5. Push your code to Heroku using git push heroku main. 6. Finally, run heroku open to view your deployed app.

Do I need to configure any environment variables?

Yes, you may need to configure environment variables for your Nuxt.js app, such as NODE_ENV for production mode and any API keys your app requires. You can set these in the Heroku dashboard or using the CLI with heroku config:set VARIABLE_NAME=value.

Can I use a custom domain with my Heroku app?

Absolutely! You can add a custom domain to your Heroku app by going to the app settings in the Heroku dashboard and following the instructions to configure your DNS settings.
