Keeping it simple with Prismic and Nuxt
For Vue users, Nuxt provides a guiding structure from which you can build without worrying about unnecessary details. But there's no point in choosing simplicity if you combine it with a CMS that complicates your project.
A friendly learning curve
The combination of Nuxt and Prismic provides a straightforward developer experience that is great for kickstarting projects. Nuxt has built on the simplicity of Vue to provide a more structured approach - allowing you to focus on the areas of your build that really matter.
Straightforward components
Adopting a component-based approach in React can have a steep learning curve, but Nuxt has added a structure to Vue's easy approach to components that allows you to build your website faster.
Static or Dynamic
It even offers the flexibility of choosing between a static and dynamic build - but no matter which approach you choose, the Prismic Previews feature will ensure that your content looks just right.
Implementing a component-based approach?
Slice Machine is a component management tool that will improve your workflow and give you access to customizable component libraries. Whether you're just looking to speed up your build time, use open-source components for your project, or simply find some inspiration, it's worth a look.
Simplicity - right out of the box.
Nuxt comes with all of the little things that make Vue great (like Vuex and Vue Router) and, right out of the box, offers default configurations that implement a host of best practices.
Automated route generation
Nuxt will automatically generate your routes once you have placed your single file Vue components into your pages folder. That isn't to say that Nuxt is limited or restrictive, but it offers a helping hand throughout the build process.

Vue, unlike some other frameworks, makes using components easy right from the get-go. Nuxt has taken this one step further - you should expect the same from your CMS.
