Nuxt.js API Example using Vuex and axios

Nuxt API Example

An example of using Vuex, axios, and a REST API with Nuxt

A couple things that are setup for this example that could be of interest to someone...

• Nuxt's fetch() method is used to fill our Vuex Store for our posts listing page and for the dynamic post page for individual post
• The head property for the dynamic post route is using the title property from the returned post object to set the meta title property

Other project info

• Nuxt Modules are used to add Bulma, markdown-it, and font-awesome
• The menu.js file inside the middleware directory is used to handle closing the mobile dropdown menu once a link is selected
• I am using Netlify for hosting this as a static site

Build Setup

$ npm install # Or yarn install

# serve with hot reload at localhost:3000
$ npm run dev

# build for production and launch server
