Template Details

This is a Nuxt 3 starter template, described in its repository as a "minimal Nuxt 3 starter template preconfigured with essential modules." It wires up a common toolchain in advance, reducing the work of configuring a new project from scratch.

The preconfigured items include: UnoCSS (with presetUno, presetAttributify, presetTypography, presetWebFonts, plus transformerDirectives and transformerVariantGroup), VueUse, Pinia, TypeScript, PostCSS Nesting, ESLint, and pnpm. The Nuxt modules include @nuxt/devtools, nuxt-icon, @nuxt/image, and @nuxtjs/color-mode.

There are three ways to use it: open it online via StackBlitz, generate a new repository from the GitHub template, or clone locally with npx giget gh:matijaoe/nuxt-starter <name> (without git history). The README provides a getting-started checklist that suggests installing recommended extensions, changing the author name in LICENSE, deleting the gradients directory under public, removing the Welcome.vue component and the icon components in components/global, removing modules from nuxt.config.ts and package.json as needed, and customizing the README.

Limitations: the template is only a configuration starting point; it does not include business pages or backend capabilities. The demo site is deployed on Vercel. The repository uses the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, but third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons require separate license checks, and external services such as domains, hosting, and databases may incur additional charges.

Suitable For

  • Developers using Nuxt 3 who want UnoCSS, Pinia, and VueUse preinstalled
  • Frontend projects that prefer TypeScript, ESLint, and the pnpm toolchain
  • Those who need a trimmable Nuxt project starting point rather than a complete business application

Usage conditions & limitations

Free to use · keep license notice

This entry covers the free version in the public repository under the MIT license; the free scope applies to that version's code and does not imply that external services or third-party assets are free.

Must comply with when using

  • Free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version's code are permitted.
  • When distributing copies or substantial portions of the code, retain the original author's copyright notice and the full MIT license notice.
  • The code is provided as is; warranties and limitations of liability are governed by the original license and applicable law.

Additional costs & items to verify

  • When using the template, replace the author name in LICENSE with your own to comply with the MIT license attribution requirement.
  • The template includes example assets in public/gradients; delete them before use to avoid directly reusing example resources.
  • Welcome.vue is a demo component and should be deleted before use in a production project.
  • The icon components under components/global are example content and should be deleted as needed.
  • The preconfigured modules should be removed as needed; unused modules add dependency and build overhead.
  • The README is template documentation and should be replaced with your own project description when used.
  • Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets require checking their respective licenses; they cannot be judged solely by the code's MIT license.
  • External services such as domains, hosting, databases, payments, or AI may incur additional charges.

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

What to verify for this project

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Nuxt as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
