Nuxt 4.2 ships opt‑in Environment API support, Nitro v3 compatibility, an automatically extractable async D that cuts JS by 39% and unused JS by 66%, a bundle renderer precompute 15x faster, a TS dev plugin for jump-to-runtime links, and an experimental Rust-powered dev server that drops startup from 800ms to 500ms.
