Beyond Nuxt 4
summary
Nuxt stays on Nuxt 4 for now while Nuxt 5 incubates; Nuxt 4.5 ships concrete features: named views for file-system routing, payload + image prefetch so linked pages load instantly, and an unbounded server cache becomes bounded to stop Kubernetes pod restarts. Tooling changes: Rspack v2, Oxc/Rollup string with Rust speedups, halving file watchers, and experimental Vite 8 support. Ecosystem stats: ~300 community modules and ~1,000 contributors. Big architectural move is Nitro 3 and a single dev server/runtime mode for faster, lower-memory development.
