Build and configure web servers with Nitro, including request handlers, caching, storage, and scheduled tasks. The skill also guides deployment to supported runtimes and platforms, plus migration from Nitro v2 to v3.
Nitro is the framework-agnostic server toolkit (powering Nuxt) for building and deploying web servers anywhere. Use when working with nitro.config, server routes/event handlers, route rules, caching, storage, tasks, websockets, or deploying to Node/Bun/Deno/Cloudflare/Vercel.
Review the instructions the agent will receive before you install.
The skill is based on Nitro v3 (beta, 3.0.260903), generated at 2026-09-25.
Nitro is a framework-agnostic, deployment-agnostic server toolkit powered by H3 v2, unstorage, and Vite/Rolldown/Rollup. It powers Nuxt and works standalone. From one codebase it builds optimized output for Node.js, Bun, Deno, Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify, and more.
Key capabilities:
NITRO_* env vars.Key v3 changes (vs.
nitropackv2): the package is renamednitropack→nitrowith H3 v2 (web-standardRequest/Response); auto-imports are removed (import everything explicitly); directory scanning is opt-in viaserverDir;useStorage→useKV(nitro/kv) and thestorageconfig option →kv; cacheswrnow defaults tofalse. If unsure about v2-vs-v3 APIs, read advanced-migration first.

Set up JavaScript and TypeScript projects using Anthony Fu’s conventions for code organization, development tools, and package publishing. Establish shared checks for formatting, types, unused code, and tests before committing changes.
Create a GitHub pull request from the current branch with a structured title, a clear explanation of behavior changes, and recorded check results. For UI changes, attach before-and-after screenshots so reviewers can assess the visual differences.
Develop Vue web applications with Nuxt, covering pages, data fetching, shared state, and server API routes. Configure rendering on the server or in the browser, and prepare deployment settings for supported platforms.
Organize shared data and update logic in Vue apps using Pinia stores, containers for application state. The skill guides store definitions, reactive data access, communication between stores, testing, and integration with Nuxt and server-side rendering.
Manage Node.js dependencies with pnpm, from installing packages to coordinating multiple projects in one workspace. The skill covers shared version settings, third-party package patches, dependency overrides, and consistent installation procedures for automated build environments.
Configure UnoCSS and style interfaces with utility classes, small reusable styling instructions. Use project settings to define custom rules, shortcuts, themes, and presets for features such as icons, typography, and attribute-based styling.
