What Lahyer does with it
How Nuxt builds and runs.
Lahyer fills these in from your repository. Change anything that does not fit in the project's build settings.
| Detected from | nuxt in your package.json dependencies |
|---|---|
| Install | npm, pnpm, Yarn or Bun, chosen from your packageManager field or lockfile |
| Build | Your build script, or nuxt build |
| Runs as | A Node.js server from .output/. When the build script runs nuxt generate, static files from .output/public/ |
| Node.js | 20 or 22, read from .nvmrc, .node-version or engines.node (22 by default) |
Your first deploy
Three steps
to a live URL.
Server or static, from your build script.
Keep nuxt build for server rendering and server routes. Change the build script to nuxt generate for a prerendered site.
Push and ship.
Every push deploys, pull requests get preview URLs, and runtime logs show what the server is doing.
A few useful answers
Before you begin.
Do Nuxt server routes work?
Yes, when you deploy with nuxt build. Routes in server/api run on the Nitro server Lahyer starts.
How does Lahyer choose between server and static?
From your package.json build script. If it runs nuxt generate, Lahyer serves the prerendered files. Otherwise it runs the server.
Will my app sleep on the free plan?
Server apps on Free sleep when idle and start again on the next request, which can take a moment. Pro keeps one production app always on.
Can my app use a database?
Yes. Add Postgres from the project's Database tab and Lahyer puts the connection string in DATABASE_URL for production and preview. Free includes one 1 GB database.
