I'm baffled by the doom-and-gloom reactions here. Nuxt remains what it's always been: the best convention-over-configuration framework in existence. It's built on Vue which is opinionated as hell, and you get all the benefits of that. The "vendor lock-in" concerns are frankly overblown. At the end of the day Nuxt produces artifacts you can deploy anywhere - AWS, Cloudflare, your own infrastructure, or yes, Vercel. The alternatives (underfunded OSS maintainers burning out) are way worse than having a well-funded team with aligned incentives. If anything this validates that Nuxt is valuable enough for a major platform company to invest in. I'll take that over watching great tools die from lack of resources.

Everything you say is now subject to change due to strategic decisions by a single entity that owns almost all horses in the race. The things you take for granted now can disappear tomorrow, no matter how many times they pinky promise not to.

Nuxt is great, but Chromium is great too. Yet, Google has become the driving force behind changes to the web platform, for better or worse. That’s not a desirable situation, and certainly not the only one: it’s not like there’s only a single company out there able to fund open source software. I desperately hope we, collectively, will figure out a better financing model in the future.
