Enjoy this issue and have a lovely week ☀️

Nuxt

💡 Nuxt's Built-In Storage

Nuxt has a built-in storage solution powered by Nitro :

1// Default storage is in memory
2await useStorage().setItem('test:foo', { hello: 'world' })
3await useStorage().getItem('test:foo')

Nitro itself uses unjs/unstorage to provide a runtime agnostic persistent layer.

It's not a replacement for a robust database, but it's great for temporary data or as a caching layer.

This just scratches the surface. Learn more about the unjs/unstorageunjs/unstorage package that powers this: unjs/unstorage
