Build and deploy universal JavaScript servers!
Nitro provides a powerful toolchain and a runtime framework from the UnJS ecosystem to build and deploy any JavaScript server, anywhere!
❯ Rapid development experience with hot module replacement
❯ Multi-provider deployments with a single codebase and zero-configuration
❯ Portable and compact deployments without node_modules dependency
❯ Directory structure aware to register API routes and more with zero configuration
❯ Minimal Design to fit into any solution with minimum overhead
❯ Code-splitting and async chunk loading for fast server startup time
❯ TypeScript fully supported
❯ Multi-driver storage and caching layer
❯ Route caching and static pre-rendering with built-in crawler
❯ Hackable to extend almost any part of nitro using options
❯ Auto imports for lazy folks and a tidy minimal codebase
❯ Best-effort compatibility for using legacy npm packages and mocking Node.js modules
Nuxt 3 is using Nitro as it's server engine.
0️⃣ Create an empty directory nitro-app
mkdir nitro-app
cd nitro-app1️⃣ Create routes/index.ts:
export default () => 'nitro is amazing!'2️⃣ Start development server:
npx nitropack dev🪄 Your API is ready at http://localhost:3000/
🤓 [TIP] Check .nitro/dev/index.mjs if want to know what is happening
3️⃣ You can now build your production-ready server:
npx nitropack build4️⃣ Output is in the .output directory and ready to be deployed on almost any VPS with no dependencies. You can locally try it too:
node .output/server/index.mjsThat's it you got it! Read the documentation to learn more.
