[Vuejs]-Nuxt.js static site relative urls

Nuxt.js doesn’t appear to support relative urls (see above). However Vue3 and Vite does.

Reproduction steps:

npm install vue@next
npm install -g @vue/cli
npm init @vitejs/app my-app

output:

@vitejs/create-app
Ok to proceed? (y) y
✔ Select a framework: · vue
✔ Select a variant: · TypeScript

cd my-app
npm install
npm run build

vite.config.ts

import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [vue()],
  base: './'
})

If you want to load some JSONs into your Nuxt app, you should use nuxt-content. I’ve actually created a boilerplate here that you can check: https://github.com/kissu/nuxt-tailwind-typography-darkmode-boilerplate

You can find 2 articles in /content/articles. There, you can see how to fetch then and how to display them.

Full static Nuxt do not require any server indeed. You can even SSR (ssr: true) it and still have it as target: static.

publicPath is not the right thing here. It should not be used, neither should you use any of the following: _nuxt, .nuxt or alike.
yarn generate, then deploy your /dist directory to a simple free platform, like Netlify and you’ll be gucci. You can try my project if you want (beware, there is more configuration than neeed in your case).
