Nuxt Architecture
summary
Nuxt 3 is a full rewrite with a fresh repo, splitting logic into functions and shipping TypeScript everywhere so core and plugins are typed; a new builder adds an esbuild preset 3x faster in dev and upgrades to webpack 5 with persistent cache for much faster cold and warm builds. Renderer separates SSR from middleware to provide a pure SSR function for serverless (faster startup), adds multi-app support, modern-by-default targets (dropping IE11), and a new module system for cross-major and runtime-only modules.
