Features

Some features of Nuxt are available on an opt-in basis, or can be disabled based on your needs.

features

devLogs

Stream server logs to the client as you are developing. These logs can be handled in the dev:ssr-logs hook.

By default, this is enabled in development (when test mode is not active).

If set to silent, the logs will not be printed to the browser console.

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  features: {
    devLogs: true,
  },
})

inlineStyles

Inlines styles when rendering HTML. This is currently available only when using Vite.

You can also pass a function that receives the path of a Vue component and returns a boolean indicating whether to inline the styles for that component.

It defaults to (id) => id.includes('.vue').

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  features: {
    inlineStyles: false, // or a function to determine inlining
  },
})

noScripts

Turn off rendering of Nuxt scripts and JavaScript resource hints, so pages ship as pure HTML and CSS.

Possible values:

• false (default): scripts are rendered normally.
• 'production' (or true, which is normalized to 'production'): scripts are omitted in production builds only, so hot module replacement and other development features keep working in nuxt dev.
• 'all': scripts are omitted in both development and production.

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  features: {
    noScripts: 'production', // or 'all' | false
  },
})

You can also disable scripts per-route with the noScripts route rule, which applies in all modes:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  routeRules: {
    '/blog/**': { noScripts: true },
  },
})

When noScripts applies to a rendered page, the following are omitted from the HTML:

• the Nuxt entry <script> tags
• the import map for the entry chunk
• the inlined payload <script> (and the payload preload link, when payload extraction is enabled)
• JavaScript resource hints (preload and prefetch links for JS chunks)

CSS is unaffected: stylesheet links and inlined styles are still rendered, so the page looks identical. The page simply never hydrates, which means nothing on it is interactive.

A few interactions to be aware of:

• Routes with the noScripts route rule are always rendered with the buffered (non-streaming) renderer.
• Server components that only render static HTML work fine, but components hydrated with nuxt-client and interactive island slots rely on an inline script to relocate teleported content, so they will not become interactive on a noScripts route. When features.noScripts is set app-wide and component islands are active, Nuxt also falls back to buffered rendering for this reason.

future

There is also a future namespace for early opting-in to new features that will become default in a future (possibly major) version of the framework.

compatibilityVersion

This enables early access to Nuxt features or flags.

Setting compatibilityVersion to 5 changes defaults throughout your Nuxt configuration to opt in to Nuxt v5 behaviour, including enabling the Vite Environment API.

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  future: {
    compatibilityVersion: 5,
  },
})

multiApp

This enables early access to the experimental multi-app support. You can follow the tracker issue #21635 to see the progress of multi-app support in Nuxt.

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  future: {
    multiApp: true,
  },
})

typescriptBundlerResolution

This enables 'Bundler' module resolution mode for TypeScript, which is the recommended setting for frameworks like Nuxt and Vite.

It improves type support when using modern libraries with exports.

See the original TypeScript pull request.

You can set it to false to use the legacy 'Node' mode, which is the default for TypeScript.

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  future: {
    typescriptBundlerResolution: false,
  },
})
