Introduction

NuxtPress aims to provide a ready to use development environment, combining WordPress with Nuxt. Included are:

• Fully dockerized WordPress and NuxtJS containers, setup in one command: docker-compose up -d

• Extended Rest API gives easy access to meta-fields, featured media menus and front-page config.

• Latest NuxtJS, with a WordPress $wp object, to connect to the extended WordPress Rest API.

This allows you to skip all the backend coding, but provides the flexibility to extend the backend if you want to.
