Nuxt vs Hugo

An easy way to export your Vue.js Web Application into a static website.

Static and dynamic

Vue SSR is used to generate pages for both client and server; It's called Isomorphic/ Universal rendering.

Then you can run nuxt generate to generate your static website into a ./dist forlder and deploy it everywhere: Netlify, Githup pages, Gitlab, AWS3, etc.

Setup a project in a minute

Hugo is a static site generator written in Go. It is optimized for speed, easy use and configurability. Hugo takes a directory with content and templates and renders them into a full html website.

Hugo makes use of Markdown files with front matter for meta data.

A typical website of moderate size can be rendered in a fraction of a second. A good rule of thumb is that Hugo takes around 1 millisecond for each piece of content.

It is written to work well with any kind of website including blogs, tumbles and docs.
