What is Vulmix?

Vulmix is a small and experimental Vue meta-framework made by @ojvribeiro. It is totally inspired by Nuxt and it aims to provide a simple and powerful way to create Vue.js single page applications (SPAs) with little effort and a minimal setup from the start.

Vulmix uses Laravel Mix under the hood to handle the build process and it provides a set of tools to make the development process easier and faster.

This is what a brand new Vulmix project looks like when you run npx create-vulmix-app my-app:

And after installing the dependencies and running the project with the dev script (in this case, yarn dev):

And you're good to go! You can start building your application right away in the app.vue file.

Why?

Since we already have Nuxt, why would we need another meta-framework?

To be honest, Vulmix started as a personal project to learn more about Vue and the ecosystem around it, but I happened to put more effort and love on it than previously expected and it has grown to be a very useful tool for me and I hope it can be useful for you too.

Nuxt is great and Vulmix took a lot of inspiration from it (auto-imports is such a nice feature). I tried to keep the same simplicity and ease of use that Nuxt has, but with a more minimal approach and a smaller scope (so no SSR or SSG). Vulmix aims to provide tools for building PWAs and web games with almost no configuration or optimization needed.
